Nevertheless, we might get rid of some stuff to add new, but old stuff. We will see. Upon walking inside the shop, I think about how many homes these pieces of furniture traveled to. Speaking with Ms. Gordon, I found out about the possibility of donating old furniture we might not need anymore. This has been fun. I did enjoy seeing pictures of North Carolina Outer Banks before the heavy development. Lots more to explore and the prices are reasonable.

I've always loved this shop, so glad they are back! Lots of fabulous stuff to be found.read more

First of all, Bob McCann, the owner/proprietor is legitimately the nicest, most charming, and…read moreenthusiastic person ever. He loves what he does, and he enjoys talking about and showing off his numerous projects. Check out the book in his shop that shows the kind of work that he's done. This man is living the dream - he's doing what he loves, with incredible attention to detail. He's not doing it for massive profits, but because he really, really loves his work. And though he's an amazing restorer, he is most enthusiastic about repurposing older pieces to fit your current lifestyle. Ask him about his pump organ projects - something that was basically broken down and unusable was repurposed into a desk with hidden cubbies and secret panels like something out of that National Treasure movie. Which led me to basically dream planning having one of this pump organs be redesigned into a goth themed vanity of my dreams. Never mind that I live in a studio. And I was SHOCKED at how low the starting price for a project like that was - seriously, he is undercharging for the kind of work he does. I am seriously considering getting rid of my couch and tv cabinet just to make room for his custom vanity with secret cubbies and hidden drawers and expandable table tops. But if you're not ready for that and are looking for someone to fix/restore/recane/refinish cherished family pieces or even fix up that flea market find, Mr. McCann is your guy. He's a freaking treasure and he's absolutely worth the drive out to visit for a consult (or even just a chat )

I held onto his info and reached out to him to have him restore a 55 year old mid century one piece sofa sectional. It was my Dad's bachelor sofa. 10ft long.

It's got two floors of antiques, with many rooms, but I couldn't find exactly what I wanted. I liked the wall dedicated to salt and pepper shakers and would consider coming here for glasses and plates. Jewelry, furniture, postcards, framed art, mirrors, books, kitchenware, quirky items etc.... It reminded me of all the thrift stores I've been browsing at with low prices (isn't that old stuff too?). I just can't tell the difference sometimes--you donate your items to thrift stores, but antique shops carry items from estate sales? I feel weird bargaining here. Everything was a little overpriced for me, but that's probably because I don't have a good appraising eye. I was surprised to find their glass cabinets near $600.
