My never ending search for awesomeness has taken me around the world but I've found some of my…read morefavorite places where you least expect them. On a recent trip heading back from Chicago you to my ranch just south of Kansas City I took a road less traveled and noticed the old mower shop in my home town or Monmouth had closed but something caught me eye. Actually, a lot of things caught my eyes. What's this? An antique shop? We've all seen plenty of those but this appeared to be more. Unfortunately, the place was closed so I looked them up on Facebook as I saw they didn't open the next day until 10 and I had many miles to go so I didn't want to delay my departure so imagine my surprise when the owner emailed me back and offered to open early so I could check this place out. I've always been a guy who likes crusty industrial pieces but also appreciate many antique pieces and boy did this place deliver. They had it all and the owner is a kindred spirit as we both appreciated many of the same things. In no time my pile of "can't live without that" grew. This place was a goldmine but not just for folks looking for the things I was, their architectural salvage selection was incredible and I only wished I had my list of door and window sizes as this place is full of beautiful and functional pieces unlike the cheapo crap you can buy at the big box stores that cost you many times more. I ended up filling up my truck with items that not only were beautiful but also extremely affordable. Much better pricing than I've seen elsewhere to the point I didn't even try to negotiate but I suspect I could have but with a selection like that combined with their prices I damn near had to pinch myself for my good luck and having such a wonderful owner who herself is a true artist that has a passion to rescue and give a second life to pieces worth preserving. As Arnold says.... "I'll be back". The shop, selection, prices and most definitely the owner were kick ass in my book. Thank you CherIt Forward

If you are from the area, you know you could blink and miss this town, let alone actually notice…read morethis gem. I have been thrifting, discount shopping, and garage sale-ing for my new place like crazy and someone suggested I check this place out. The furniture is all antique and prices reflect that. I really found it cool to just wonder up and down the aisles looking at all the vintage knick knacks, especially collectors items. If you collect anything at all, you should visit here. Most everything looked vintage. Some of the things I passed frequently were: tea sets, toys, books, instruments, vases, china, xmas decor, cookie jars, and lots of home decor things. If you are looking for that one special piece with a lot of character, I think you will find it here. I know I did! This would be a cool place for someone looking to update or DIY some cool old things.

It is such a wonderful shop, it is always nice to visit here. The shop is always neat and orderly and very nicely decorated. Prices are fair and I always find something to buy. It is a family run shop, they are so nice and friendly. I am so happy to write this review for a shop I really enjoy. I wish it were closer to home. I always stop there if I am out that way or returning from somewhere farther out. Also if you go in the nice weather, they have a pretty garden to admire out back behind the building.
