Second Hand Rose Antiques

It’s like a pirate ship filled to sinking with treasure collected from around the world.
This shop is amazing. You walk in the door and it is crammed from floor to ceiling with coca cola memorabilia, vintage jewelry, vintage compacts, house wares and everything else you would expect to see in an antique shop and antique mall combined. And that’s just the first floor. There are 3 floors total and even though you have to poke around and look carefully, this shop definitely has a little bit of something for everyone. Ooops, 4 floors if you count the «bargain basement.»
The owner, Rose, probably has more character than the stuff she’s selling. This lady could sell a fuzz ball to the pope! Her husband is a minister in town and she runs her shop… and let me warn you, half the stuff I bought, I didn’t really want. It’s really difficult to turn this lady down!
During the 3 hours I poked through the place, lots of regulars from town came in and Rose knew them all and knew what they were looking for. I did find the prices a bit salty. For me I was expecting more of the antique mall type attitude when I ended up with prices like a froofy antique store. Over all a great experience and I will head back next year when I am in town. Only this time I will bring a sign that says no thank you for when I’m feeling pressured to purchase something I don’t know for sure I want.
