Why would you ever buy cheap-o particle board furniture from Ikea or Wal-Mart? Buy something from Corner Cottage. The owner is absolutely wonderful, and she has connections to all the best local pickers, and then some. Everything I've ever bought from her (yow, I've probably given her several hundred dollars at this point, I think) is high quality, and it's made to last.
There are three stories of furniture, fixtures, decorations and so on. She does take credit card (no minimum), and if you want, she can try and find specific items for you. The prices are great, for the most part, and the higher prices are justifiable, in my opinion. She will negotiate somewhat, but for the most part, her prices are firm. All of her prices are reasonable. She regularly has sales and discounts on various items.
There's a parking lot next to her building, so it's easy to get in and park, but it's on the busy part of York Road with some of your view blocked on the way out - so it's an adventure leaving. The shop is directly across the street from Andy Nelson's BBQ (also a fantastic place to visit).
I don't recall the specific hours, but it's not open on Monday. Call the store for their hours of operation.
Key words, in case you're curious about the store's style: antique, shabby chic, country, vintage, picker, crafts, restored read more
