Pretty Funny Vintage



Each day on the way to visit my Mom in the hospital,
I pass a big old Victorian house with a sign that says ANTIQUES...
... and one that says Curious Goods.

Yesterday, I stopped as I was curious about the goods!

I am so glad I did!

The name of this place is Pretty Funny Vintage!

Piles of wonderful things!

Look at all this vintage jewelry!




Stephanie Ross....the owner and proprietress has a fabulous mix of antiques, vintage items and a few new items with vintage flair...

She travels monthly to New England and Pennsylvania...
... and with an experienced and discerning eye selects an ever changing assortment of eclectic and interesting antiques and vintage items for her shop.

Stephanie then enjoys displaying everything in artistic and creative vignettes...

Oh what fun it was to poke around in here!



There is a large collection of beautiful vintage clothes...



Loads of prints and plates and other ephemera...



An eclectic mix of smalls...
...some quirky...all fun!



Vintage toys, suitcases, wooden boxes, chests of drawers and industrial tables...



Goose neck lamps, scientific equipment, vintage sporting goods















handmade and artsy things...
...lots of wonderful gift ideas here...



...and pearls.
...lots and lots of vintage poils!

It was really fun to visit with Stephanie and while there, her good friend and photographer
Tara Thayer stopped in! She is also a blogger and we had a good time chatting about some of our favorites out there in bloglandia!

I did get to the Flea Market this morning....met up with Mimi...aka...The Brocantess...
We had fun searching for treasure together!

We also ran into my good friend Deanna of Gather in Ivoryton, CT.
She was finding lots of goodies for her fabulous shop!
I have to get back there again soon!

I will try to get a few of my Sunday finds photographed tomorrow morning in order to share pics with you tomorrow night!

Have a great Monday!
