The shop also carries a little bit of local merch and some fun extra gifts. One thing I really appreciated was the affordable postcards, which is important to note because they are up-charged at some surrounding stores. I ended up grabbing a few, plus a fun magnet, and they also had a couple local art prints. The inside is super charming, a cozy, feel-good stop whether you're looking for a new read or just a small souvenir.

Squeeeee! This place is AMAZING…read more I seriously cannot believe I've never been in/heard of this place after driving by it so often... and me being in love with all things old and chippy. The place is huge! It is pretty well organized. There is furniture throughout. There is a section for bathtubs---beautiful old clawfoot bathtubs. Oh yes, there is a section of just clawfeet too! There are tons of old doors, windows, reclaimed wood, cabinets, hardware, and so much more. I could spend hours in that place. And don't worry, I will. It was pretty cold in there today and my partner in crime was being a baby so I had to dillydally and linger less than I wanted to. The prices as marked were highish, but they are probably negotiable. I've got my mind on several pieces so I will update when I go back.

I haven't always been a fan of antiques. I remember the first antique shop I ventured into in my…read moreadult life, with the tagged prices dangling around like the "You can't afford this" taunts I took them for, and how I thought "why would I pay so much for something so old when I could pay less for something new with a guarantee?" And then I evolved to understand that although new can have its benefits, old is most often better. Things just aren't made today like they used to be. Everything is cheap plastic and plywood and imitation. Gone are the days of real wood cut from century-old trees, individually crafted marble bookends, US-made pottery. And that's what makes antique shops special. They allow us Generation X, Y and Hipsters a crack at living the way life used to be. Antiques are dying by the day, and antique shops are our last chance to buy as many Dodo birds as we can. In the last 10 years, I've been to countless antique stores up and down the east coast and so I'm pleased to say that one of the better ones sits just a few well-travelled miles down the road from me. Five Corners Antiques sits atop a furniture store and an architectural salvage warehouse. You could literally build and furnish most of an entire home with the contents from this one building. Five Corners Antiques sells merchandise from 40+ eclectic vendors. One or two, admittedly, have been creative with their interpretation of the word "antiques" (a Yankee candle? Really?) but the great majority of these vendors offer a wonderful selection of vintage and antique items that are decorative and/or completely practical/functional. There's furniture for all rooms in the house including everything you'd need for a kitchen; tools; artwork; ephemera and old books; rugs; toys; baskets; lighting; etc. with an emphasis on the etc. The shop is well-organized and welcoming, the employees are kind and helpful, the booths often have sales (their Super Bowl party sale was incredible!), and there's a clean and stocked bathroom. The prices are sometimes higher than you'd like but you can always try haggling. The employees will gladly call the vendor to ask if there's a "better price." You will spend hours in this shop and you will spend money. And you won't mind.

I understand he also has t-shirts and cards as well with some of his works. Absolutely worth stopping by his studio if you are in Stowe or check out his website. I am sure his paintings will be worth a lot in the future!
