As a visitor to Beacon, New York, O was happy to find this small flea/farmer's market off the main…read morestreet. Found New York Textile Lab's kiosk there. Bought a beautiful organic cotton, wool, and alpaca hoodie for travel to Japan in October! Also found cotton /wool blend socks for the same upcoming trip! Woo hoo! Scored! There was also a long line for ??? So we queued up to see why... By the time we got to the front of the line, the display cases were mostly empty of baked goods (it was a bakery kiosk!) but we shared one (1) chocolate pretzel croissant. Didn't look impressive, but looks can be deceiving! Wow! What a delicious, flavorful chocolate croissant, crispy on the outside and an explosion of chocolate in the moist interior! We should have bought more! Overall a great flea/farmers' market! Try it!

On a pleasant Sunday afternoon it's relaxing to wander past the assorted tables filled with a…read moreplethora of odds and ends. There are stacks of 33.3 rpm vinyl records; maybe you'll find something. It's ironic that most people got rid of them when it was almost impossible to find phonograph needles several decades ago. Remember Walk-man's MP-3's? Where are they now?! Stalls of clothing, semi-antiques, jewelry, old magazines and toys. There are some things that make you wonder; like old black and white, family photos in albums. Who were these people and how did they end up a flea market? There's no captions. Such as; uncle So & So at cousin X's wedding, or our first new car. It's a little sad.

Another nice pro is the fitting room is a bathroom in case you need to go lol.

The prices are incomparably low - I've walked out of there with a bag of stuff for less than $5 on several occasions. They have dishware, houseware, kitchenware, fabric, crafting supplies, books, movies, sheet music, toys, jewelry, and a whole room of clothing upstairs (plus fitting rooms!) If you love treasure hunting, The Barn is a must-visit for you!

After doing some research online, I decided to give chalk paint a try and settled on Annie Sloan brand chalk paint due to the amazing reviews. Caryn at Knot Too Shabby was listed as my closest retailer so I reached out. From our first email exchange Caryn was helpful, prompt and supportive. When I visited her store she spent a ton of time helping me pick the right color and brushes and giving me tutorials on how to apply the paint and wax. Talking to her gave me the confidence to tackle this project and it turned out amazing!

What a CUTE shop!!! So glad we popped in here…read more Their name is accurate as they have tons of locally made bath products, such as soaps, bubble bath, body butters, etc. The scents can be overwhelming so keep that in mind if you have a sensitive nose! However, they also have Vintage Sodas that you can make into an ice cream float! So cool! Unfortunately I had just eaten fro-yo, otherwise I definitely would've indulged in an old school coke float. They have a lot of options and it's self serve. The soda float bar is exactly what you'd see in a 1950s movie - vintage and beyond adorable. I spoke with the owner who was super nice and friendly. Whether you're looking for a gift or want to treat yourself to a unique dessert to help you beat the summer heat, this shop is definitely worth checking out!

Just don't expect anything on the scale of a Salvation Army or Savers where you can go crazy. That said, I stopped in recently and found a nice paisley shirt and an old suitcase. Unfortunately however, the paisley shirt was way too small and will never fit me and my girlfriend said she would move out if I brought home another ratty old suitcase. I ended up buying the paisley shirt anyway but decided to leave the suitcase behind. It was a big brown Samsonite, and I wanted it. But it wasn't the hill to die on. Either way, I will continue to check in from time to time as this place could definitely yield an excellent thrift store haul if you hit it on the right day.

My first negative review of this great little shop. It's very cluttered but you can find some…read moretreasures, I've been stopping in there for 24 years. The employees are always nice. Today, I dropped off a small donation, and decided to look around as usual. There were two people outside the store looking over two bins of books, really nice ones, some classics. We had a nice discussion about authors, books we've read. One customer was helping another, and suggested to one employee that she could price them per box. So she stated that they go for a dollar ea. Okay, but then she changed her mind and offered $10 for two big bins instead. Ok, so the other customer said she was glad to donate them & take the $10. She didn't want to throw them out. Another customer began picking out rejected books from the garbage bin. The employee was really annoyed and stated that we are not allowed to take things out of the garbage bin. Really???? So you're going to fill up the landfill with things that could be reused. I entered the store, and this employee was arguing very loudly with the one customer who was helping the other one. The customer did not raise a voice - the rest of us looked at each other, it was embarrassing. That employee should have handled it better. Calmly repeat your store policy, or say that you cannot accept a donation for whatever reason, nicely, politely. That you take in donations and price them for sale. She was so unpleasant, I felt sorry for the customer and the rest of us. Perhaps your little store is too crowded? Think of donating books to a Veterans organization. Be polite! There is no reason to be nasty just because you are feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, perhaps not enough help in the shop. It was very uncomfortable, so I walked out.
