explore: vintage hardware

Last weekend my friend Andrea, her daughter Ruby, my pup Arthur and I all took a day trip to the coast.  I don't know how it happened, but it was one of the prettiest days over there, here's proof. With no real plans in mind we decided to take our time and venture to Astoria & Seaside, but our main priority was to visit Vintage Hardware and it did not disappoint!  My pictures can't even do this place justice, its one of the coolest shops I've been in- here are some google images to give you a better idea.

The owners were so incredibly sweet, the building is amazingly old & a little birdie told us they are having a HUGE sale in a few weeks where everything around $10 -including furniture- so if you are in the pnw follow them on facebook to stay updated and maybe I'll see you there! 
If you are in the Pacific Northwest (or know the area) especially Portland and you think there is a place I should explore- let me know! I'd love to share an adventure based on a recommendation from one of you xo

  1. That place looks amazing! There is a similar place here in Atlanta, called Paris on Ponce and it's been described to me as "your grandmother's attic if your grandmother was a circus performing, Romanian gypsy." You've inspired me to check it out, I've always wanted to!
