The building is filled with antique furniture, hardware, doors, kitchen ware and assorted knickknacks. I even saw a kitchen sink. Several vintage cameras caught my eye.

Inventory changes regularly. The building is upscale from the outside and a little hard to find as it is located at the end of one way street. There is street parking around the building. Worth a visit if you're remodeling and looking unique decor.

The Blackbird Nest specializes in redesigned modern, antique and vintage furniture along with home decor, lamps, new clothing, bath and body products, prints, florals and wreaths plus holiday decor. The shop has several smaller rooms with various items incorporated throughout but items are organized well and prices are clearly marked.

The store has a few narrow isleway's but most are spacious enough to browse comfortably down. They do have a dressing room to try on clothing you are interested in.

At the very least, it's a fun romp through a bit of local history, and at the most, it's a perfect place to frequent in search of that one piece your home is looking for. My wife and I make this a regular date day trip. Any time we have some time off, we'll stop by and peruse. We've only bought something two or three times, but each time it was an absolute steal. That's not to say everything is cheap. There are plenty of traps that are looking to sell you junk at a premium, but that's to be expected at any flea market. if you're familiar with flea markets and co-op sales like this, you'll have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. This is one of the good. It's clean, it doesn't have any lingering smells. The stalls are well laid out, not messy, and not cramped. The staff is always in a good mood, the stall proprietors are often there and willing to chat, and when you're done, you can stop off at any number of little restaurants in the same shopping area. I've been coming here since dating my wife, and we'll keep coming back as long as we're nearby. I'm definitely a fan.
