Shopping at Scott Antique Market

November 12, 2012

If you follow me on facebook, you know that I had fun on Saturday checking out Scott Antique Market.  This is held in Atlanta on the 2nd weekend of every month.

Scott Antique Market

I had never been before, in fact I didn’t even know about it until this summer.  But a few local Atlanta bloggers and I met up and had fun checking it out.

Scott Antique Market

They have everything from furniture, to home décor, to handmade things, to jewelry to junk!  If you can find it an antique store, yard sale, you could probably find it at Scott’s!

Scott Antique Market

There are 2 buildings – I did the most of my shopping in the South building.  It was the cheaper, more DIY friendly building.

Loved this fall wreath!

While most things were more vintage/eclectic/cottage style – they had quite a few modern displays too.

These battery operated real-wax candles were really neat!  I almost brought some home but couldn’t think of where I would use them.

Windows, doors, shutters – there were lots of them to be found!

This may be the solution for my earring storage!

This was one of the most unique wreaths I have ever seen and I LOVED it!  If I can find enough fungus or mushrooms or whatever this is growing somewhere, I will make one of these!

Loved the bits of moss in it too – it really was gorgeous!

Lots of antique stuff my husband would have loved – car stuff, toys, vintage bottles and more!

I REALLY want a vintage fan but can’t seem to find one in my yard sale budget price range that I like.

Anyone watch American Restoration??  Love seeing these machines redone.

Loved these mason jar soap dispensers!  He used metal pumps and an adapter to screw them on.  If I can find his site or information, I will add it here.

This booth was the same booth from the Country Living Fair that had the neat wood signs.  I picked up one of these wood scrabble letters to add to a gallery wall.

I have NO idea how these people pack up and unpack all of this stuff for a weekend but I am glad they do cause it is  AMAZING!

Loved these rustic tin letters!

This was a neat booth – they have an etsy shop “Go Jump In The Lake”.

I did head over to the North building just for a minute – loved these chairs!

Scott Antique Market

But most everything was more ornate, and cultural décor which is not my style.

I came home with a scrabble letter for me and a Christmas present for my husband.  A big vintage letter from an old sign that can be lit from the back Smile  (Don’t worry, he doesn’t read my blog.)

If you are in the area, be sure to check out Scott Antique Market – 2nd weekend of every month!  I definitely plan to visit again!

    Wow…I think that I’ve just decided something. Yup. I’ve just decided. I’m moving to Atlanta.

    For every 2nd weekend of the month only. I mean, if they can move their antiques in and out once a month, surely I could move up and back to Atlanta every month. Those antiques need me.

    I’ll trade you my Pottery Barn for it. 😉

    Definitely want to go there…sorry it’s only one weekend a month. Guess it will have to be January since we’ll be busy with the church outreach on the 2nd Saturday of December. Guess we can get it all done before Saturday 😉 ??? Thanks for sharing all of this.

    Hi, do you have the contact info. for any of the pillow vendors? I got several from a vendor in the second building if you have to turn left to get into parking lot. They had white bookshelf like displays and had lots of pretty pillows. I need to contact them to get another pillow to match two I purchased from them at Scott’s . There were two women and I believe they were from Charlotte or Charleston. I had a business card and lost it 🙁 I thought it was AS HOME or something, but can’t find on the internet
