A Little Antiquing

While I was in California 
I was reminded by my friend Ashley how wonderful the antique mart is...
{you can read about her trip HERE}
I knew I had to grab my mom and grandma and hit the shops!
{Me and my Mom above - Me and my Grandma below}
 {I made my grandma come even though she wasn't ready for the day yet - wet hair and all}
I love walking up and down each isle of each store and swooning over all the beautiful pieces 
 window mirrors
 vintage decor 
 antique keys 
 French kitchen decor
 and SO much more....

My favorite "find" was this beautiful bedding and bed! 
Love the burlap and white!
walking up and down into all these little antique stores, like the Bungalow and the Agoura Antique Mart,  really reminded me how fun it was to shop local and support small business'
they even had buttons laying around saying the same thing
It was just a fun day that brought back so many childhood memories for me!

Do you go antiquing?
Have you scored an amazing piece from a store like this...
tell me, I'd love to hear all about it!

  3. I have to say thus far my special finds have been clothes. Like my pink petticoat that I've worn NUMEROUS times for Girls Night Out, or my vintage bathing suit I bought for $3, and I'm actually getting ready to blog about a thrift store gift for my little guy!
