Down here at the pawn shop...
This is one of my favorite little pawn shops ever. It's not even close to your typical pawn shop, which is probably why I like it so much. You seriously never know what you'll find next in this place. They do kids stuff, clothes and toys, some music and video games.. But it doesn't stop there!
I've found Vintage stacking dolls, Designer Purses, fun old toys, and what I go there for the most: Vintage Jewelry! I don't know how they find it all, but I've purchased some amazing pieces of jewelry in here!
The other day I was there with my friend (It's right next door to a wonderful little cafe', how can we resist?). I found about 10 Pieces of vintage jewelry for the shop, you can check some out in the Shop Update-Apalooza! (Or see all the new finds, in The Shop!) When I was checking out, the guy who owns the place said "Oh We're going Mr. T CRAZY for Jewelry over here! I love it!". Haha- I love it too, Beardy! Anyways, I also found this adorable Leather Vintage Etienne Aigner Purse!
I want to know about all your favorite Vintage Finding Spots! Do you like thrift stores or pawn shops? Do you stick more to antique stores? How about Estate Sales, Flea Markets, or Yard Sales? I'd love to even see some photos of different thrifting spots from around the country and beyond! (Maybe I could turn that into a blog post!)
