We Embrace Crust....

As do many of our fellow crust lovers, we search high and low for beautiful time worn items with just the right amount of that wonderful crusty patina.  We'd like to share a few pictures of some of our recent finds with you.

We are always searching for old books.  They have that perfect look, a little ragged, a little faded, but enough color to make them really stand out and make a statement.
 




Old frames with a few chips here and there make great looking blackboards with that aged and just right look.




Concrete and old plaster statutes are always perfect for adding a little crusty charm to any place you put them.  We love having them in the shop, just don't love having to move them around!







Bird's nests and hornet's nests, anything from nature, seem to always add so much and round out a really cool vignette.  They blend right in with the faded rusty stuff.




And then there are the elegant crusty finds, like this candelabra.  Beautiful alabaster with its well used candle cups.  This is one of my favorites!



Chippy furniture, architectural pieces, neat collections, old suitcases are all great pieces that we can never pass up.

 














 
If you are in the area, stop by and say hi.  We would love to meet you!
 
Until next time.....
