Shopping and inspiration: Antiques in Hancock, MD

On the drive back from a weekend in Cleveland, I got the urge to stop along the way and do a little antiquing...and found some great stuff at Hancock Antique Mall in Hancock, MD.

My favorite spot was definitely the Lill booth--the owner had set it up super cute, with all kinds of teapots and china and glass trays and lovely tea things. I also considered getting a shabby chic sort of carved wood frame mirror but it looked like it needed some repair...and there were some pink goblets to match the bird bowl that I wish I had picked up too. Might require a return trip!

 
From top:
Dep pink bowl with birds on side: Lill
Popegosser china dessert plates: Lill
Kentucky Cardinal apples sign: Lois
Nippon handpainted dip plate: Lill
Blue marble trinket box (with cockatiels on it!!!): Lill
Vintage hankies: Lill
Micro floral tapestry vintage pin: Val
Metal coaster set: Lill
Car coasters: Lill

Omg I was SO excited to find the cockatiel box especially. I happened to go back to the Lill booth after my round of the entire antique mall...I was really looking for vintage hankies and teacups so I overlooked it on the shelf somehow the first time! This is definitely my favorite new piece.

In other news, welcome to fall! I was half-surprised to see the leaves on the sidewalk yesterday, even though the weather is getting noticeably cooler.
 
 
Might be time for a road trip to enjoy all the pretty fall leaves :) Or more apple picking!
