finally squeezed in a long-overdue Georgia backroads wander -- it's been too long (thanks to exorbitant gas prices my trips have been greatly curtailed) |
today's wander eventually led to downtown Conyers, a place i have never visited before |
and the adorable little antique shop "Sadie's Antiques and Uniques" |
which is filled with exceptionally cool vignettes |
and also filled with true 'uniques' like this upcycled gas pump nozzle lamp |
and....this "alien life form detector"!! (really?) |
the biggest surprise was stepping into this pretty booth and seeing one of my own creations!! i made (and sold) this chicken wire dress form several years ago |
of course it can't be a backroads wander without a little southern architectural dereliction (complete with chipmunk on the front step) |
this faded beauty sits quite near town |
in all her shrouded elegance |
favorite pick of the day? this wonderful old fiberglass speedboat! love it! |
That very first photo is genius. I love it, you should get it matted and framed and enter it in the next local juried art show. Love it! Connie :)

ReplyDeletethe last time I was in Conyers was in 1974. I guess it is time to revisit. Pretty little southern town.
