My husband and I spend a lot of time in Upstate New York, which happens to be lousy with antique shops. I’d argue that there are more antique shops than apple orchards, breweries, and bespoke pottery shops — combined. I’m certainly not complaining about this because we love to go antiquing. I have to drag my husband into a Target, but he’s always down to seek out new-to-us antique stores and very old stuff.
He tends to be on the lookout for windsor chairs, old boxes, and anything we’ve never seen before. I look for anything and everything. We’ve bought some pretty random stuff: cans of emergency drinking water, a galvanized Sabrett hot dog bin, and a cart from an old paper factory that we use as a bar cart. We go into a store with no real plan, but there are five things we almost always buy when we see them.
