For AnnMarie

Ever have something you mean to do, yet you never seem to have the time to do it? You know, one of those things that's in the back of your mind, but kinda just stays there, perpetually on your "to do" list? Well, this was one of those things. But I did it! :)

Today, after I got off of work, I finally visited the Barntique Village, a place just up the road from my home where they sell all things, you guessed it, vintage! I only wish I'd had more time to peruse at my leisure... it really was a lot of fun, being that I'm not an aficionado of vintage items. I really went because I'd been meaning to get over there and grab some pics for my friend, AnnMarie.

This whole little village is comprised of about 20 shops selling various antique items, everything from pottery, collectible statues, bedding, clothes, toys, even James Taylor albums! (OK, so James Taylor is NOT technically "vintage", but I was thrilled to see it, lol). Here are the pictures I was able to grab, being that they were closing up... I mean to definitely go back!

That place looks so fabulous! You have captured the essence and feel of the place for sure! Your pictures show that you do know enough about vintage to take such great shots of great things. I love them all but especially the old phones, typewriter and adding machine shot. Thank you so much for sharing them with me and for taking the time and trip to do that. It is SO me! And the red, but you knew that too right? I am honored also to have a whole blog post for it. Thank you sweet friend! I am pinning this to my favorite blog posts.

Looks like a fun place. You do know James Taylor is from Massachusetts. Well, Martha's Vinyard. My husband makes fun of me but I do like his music.
