Do you like going to antique shops?

[ZandraJoi 1]

We do! I like imagining who used, wore those things. What it was like. Also I become in awe that there ARE antiques. Our throwaway generation with things made to break so we buy more, we don't have the luxury of items being lovingly made. We’ve found some great treasures in these shops. A bonus is when there are others there willing to talk with you about what they are looking for, have bought, the history of a particular item. By listening, you not only learn something you wouldn’t find in a history book, but you also encourage the elderly to talk about life ‘back then’ & make them feel good!

Oh absolutely!  We have a giant antique mall near us called the Brass Armadillo and it's just packed with antique furniture, antique memorabilia, antique toys, and even older video games.  It's so much fun looking around that place and discovering things you never would have imagined you'd see!
