Inspiration – Rusty Gold

In our little trip to Southwest Michigan, we found rusty gold and more!  A quirky antique and junk shop right off the main drag was full of colorful treasures – and we didn’t even set foot in the shop!  (The sign on the door said “hours: hit or miss”)

Cabinet with the hint of the original aqua paint

This appeared to be a child's dentist chair. The turquoise was amazing.

Red ladderback chairs - the seats are in terrific shape

Primary colored plates - this shop had MOUNTAINS of dishes

See - what did I tell you?

Cabinet with blue glass - a steal at $165.

A cutie blue concrete elephant!.

See the grass chess board? So fun!

 

Love the navy!

Remember S&H Green Stamps? Maybe not - that goes back a ways

Just for fun - propane tank goblins!

The owner obviously enjoyed a good joke - here a little doorstop doggie does his thing.

Cool white teapots and cups - maybe from closed restaurants? I can think of dozens of things to do with 'em . . .

This Detroit Jewel stove was at a different shop. Magnificent.

Oh, and a quick picture of the lakeshore:

I love Lake Michigan -

All the best – Chris
