Statham, which is located east of Atlanta (just before you get to Athens), is becoming quite the antiquing destination as more and more shops continue to open up. |
I don't think I have actually ever left this cool shop without buying something! |
Need a corbel? This is the largest collection I have seen in one place. |
Upstairs you can indulge in a full-on treasure hunt amid the historic ambiance of exposed rafters and original brick and plaster walls. |
If I lived in an industrial loft I wouldn't have left without this table! |
A few doors down from Factory Antiques is "Second Hand Rose" -- a newer shop (also closed that day) which is larger than it looks on the outside and has a wide variety of vintage offerings. |
"Along The Line" Antiques is the oldest shop in town and has cool architectural pieces inside and out. |
"Rewind" is a vintage/interiors shop. |
MaryAnn's "Fancy That" is a new addition, and sits just across the main highway running through town. |
Wow I'll definitely have to check this place out! I live near Athens so it wouldn't be far from me! Have you been to Monroe, GA before? It's about 30 minutes from Athens and has TONS of large antique stores... plus, I'm kind of partial to it because I have my shop in a store called "Hodge Podge" :)

Sounds like an area I would shop often if only I lived close by alas!
ReplyDeleteI am a backroads GA girl. How in the world have I missed this! When I asked my husband, who is a big UGA fan, if he knew where this was located, he said yes! Yeah, I can see why he's kept this one hidden from me. Thanks for sharing!
