Vintage Shopping Hustle! | Chic Finds & Antique Surprises

We're seeing and shopping with friends today in the Northwest's vintage marketplace! Downtown Centralia, Washington is so full of antique shops that we're making it our destination on a gray winter's day.

We stop first for a quick show-off of my selling space in Tower Avenue Antiques, where my case of western style and Native American items is stuffed with everything from Navajo pottery to artist bronzes. Upstairs, we've opened up the space like never before...but we're not here to tarry, we have new shops to see today!

So it's on to Shady Lady, where my friend finds garden art she can incorporate as soon as we enter. This stylish shop mixes antiques and vintage fashion and furnishings, along with some Boho home accents that show how you can work things from all decades into your decor! I find a fun set of comical mugs from an obscure 1940s Texas pottery, buy a 1930s damsel dresser jar at a great price, marvel at how inexpensive the painted French style pieces are here, and climb the magnificent staircase to a floor full of vintage and resale fashion...and the town's official bordello museum!

Then it's on to the town's original—and newest—antique mall! Centralia Square Antique Mall relocated from its eponymous building last year, joining the ever-growing strip of antique stores on Tower Avenue. The quality came with them, two floors of antique and vintage goodies that include fabulous Fenton and Pyrex, a 1930s bus fare box, unusual military and scientific items, primitives, kitchenware, radios...and a case full of really good toys! There's a lot to see here, and we use up all our time (and leave with a chandelier and a Pacific Stoneware vase) in the process!

What a fun and varied set of shops there are in this small-town antique center. I can't wait to come back with more friends soon!
