I didn't hate it, didn't love it. It's one of those places that looks like a flea market on the…read moreoutside but feels more like a collection of boutique stalls once you're in. Each vendor has a cute little setup, which is nice for browsing, but the pricing? Definitely not flea market pricing. As a reseller, I'm always on the hunt for deals, and there just wasn't any room here. Most items were priced at full retail--or even higher in some cases--which kind of defeats the purpose. Yes, some of the stuff is old, used, and vintage-adjacent, but nothing rare enough to justify the markup. If you're just looking for a weekend wander or want a quirky spot to kill time, it's fine. But if you're a picker, collector, or someone who knows the value of what you're looking at... this probably isn't your gold mine. Personally, I won't be rushing back.

Writer Friend lives for thrifting. She had been trying to get me to go with her to check out STS…read morefor a while. Well, she got the chance, and dragged me through the shelves, stacks and racks one morning. I will say this: you really need to know what you're looking at, and it's general worth. There are a few gems hidden among the dross, so it's important to be able to tell them apart. WF found a couple of candlesticks, that looked the same to me, and each priced at $3. She looked at both, picked up one, and explained that one was pewter and probably worth $50-$100, and the other one was cast aluminum, and not even worth $3. It seemed that these difference were all over the store; similar things priced the same, with one being a bargain, and the other being a waste. One thing that I didn't appreciate was one of the old ladies shadowing us while we made our way through the shelves; she was always within a few feet of us. Maybe she wanted to be close by in case we had questions, but it made me feel like a criminal she wanted to catch in the act. When we finished exploring this room, we headed over the other one, which was primarily clothing and textiles. WF was looking for curtains that she could repurpose for another project. This room was bright and cheery, as opposed to the other one, with windows covered and few lights. The clerk in this area barely noticed us when we walked in and didn't leave her seat behind the desk the entire time we were there - she didn't even respond when we said "Good morning!". We didn't last long in here, since there was nothing WF saw that met her needs. If I had more room, and a better grasp of antiques, I may come here more often, if for nothing else than to find those hidden bargains and resell them on eBay. Right now, with limited storage and a hatred of dusting, I'm just going to limit myself to browsing.

Thrift adventure on a large scale! This is a pair of large shops on their own campus off the main…read moreroad. One shop is all clothing, nicely organized in an airy, bright space with dressing rooms. I'm a weird size, so I didn't linger, but in general, selection looked "nice," more consignment-store style than down-and-dirty thrifting. The other shop is simply made of awesome. The main area is a pleasant selection of furniture, linens, and "better" decor. Then there's The Little Shop off through a doorway, which is crammed with so many bargains, experienced thrifters will whimper. This section has all sorts of things (toys, decor, china, useful household stuff). These are paid for separately from the main store, and you find out the price by asking. Prices turn out to be low. It's much more compact back here, so don't bring a huge handbag and do pick up a shopping basket if you start seeing temptations.

There were various businesses as well; music lessons, yoga studio, hair salon, barn door refurbishers, massage therapy, acupuncture, various of other shops. Kismet Co. Is a lovely metaphysical shop located in there; they sell herbal tea, oils, art, jewelry, soaps, books, crystals, and other items. The antique items were plentiful and unique. The building is historic and very cool to see all the old remnants of the axe factory. Parking lot was a decent sized. Lisa's Crown and Hammer is located on the same lot and the Farmington Trail. If you're into antiques, thrifts stores, and yard/tag sales; you will love this place.

The owners are very knowledgeable and even on their by-appointment days, if you call ahead with a specific need, they'll make sure to help you with your request. I am not allowing myself to buy too much else or I'd spend far too much time in the other side of the shop--if you're looking for one-of-a-kind items for your house or refinished/renewed furniture, though, that's something to definitely check out.

Located in what used to be a fully operating airport, Stormville Airport Antiques is L.I.T.E.R.A.L.L.Y. popping at the seams with hundreds of vendors selling vintage items from glass to wood furniture to metal knick-knacks, old-school vinyl- the list is endless. Come prepared with your sneaks and get ready to spend a few hours (or the entire day) walking on the lawn. You'll meet folks who could care less- but deep down would want you to buy their stuff and you'll also meet those charismatic vendors who'd want to tell you the item's life history. Stuff here is cheap. Not cheap in quality- cheap in price that is. Hubs and I forgot to bring our own ca$h so ended up paying the $4 ATM fee per the $200 limit. Unlike other outdoor flea markets, parking here will cost you nothing. So...enjoy and shop til you can't shop anymore.

This lady is an amazing trove of historical information and that is why I love it. Julie knows what these things are, their provenance and the detailed history behind each piece. She is an expert in the field and farmhouse style antiques is what Julie eats, sleeps and breaths, 24/7. And the inventory! I honestly don't know how she constantly finds such incredible items. Every time I stop by, it seems like 1/3 of the store is stuff I hadn't seen before. Over the years I have bought a table, some stoneware and many a fist full of silverware (and she has a TON of it). She has an absolutely gorgeous cabinet that I drool over every time I am there, but I just don't have the room for it sadly. Trust me, you'll love the store, don't listen to the Karen's. And yeah, if you break something she'll probably get testy with you, I know I would. So my advice? Don't go around picking up and breaking things that say "PLEASE do not touch!". LOL!
