It’s the perfect time of year for one of our favorite weekend activities - antiquing! We shared a version of this roundup a few years ago over on Bri’s blog (along with a video - watch it here , but we wanted to pass along an updated version with some new favorites here. Happy treasure hunting!
Fort Ann Antiques | Whitehall, NY
We’re sure you’ve driven by here a time or two on your way into Vermont on Route 4. Take it from us - it’s worth a stop! We’ve left here with everything from a vintage oil painting, to a blue and white chinoiserie vase, to an old soda crate. It seems like there’s always something new each time we stop, which of course is the beauty of a good antique shop - you never know what will be around the next corner!
The Village Booksmith | Hudson Falls, NY
Another gem on Route 4 - this time in Hudson Falls - we always enjoy a tour through The Village Booksmith. We tend to look to old books for inspiration, and there are shelves upon shelves to flip through here. While I love a great read, I’m also guilty of picking up beautiful old books to use as decor around the house - who can resist adding a title like “Adventures to Come” on their bookshelf? It’s a great bit of inspiration for the day to day.
Cambridge Antiques Center | Cambridge, NY
With a little bit of everything spanning two floors, you could easily spend the afternoon here. Some of our favorites are always waiting on the landing at the top of the stairs - vintage signage, rustic wooden trunks, and a bit of blue-and-white chinoiserie. Lots of vendors, so there’s always a great mix of formal, country / rustic, and lots of great lighting and rugs, too.
Jack’s Out Back | Cambridge, NY
Right next door to Cambridge Antiques, don’t miss popping into Jack’s. If you like vintage signage, this is your place - there’s an almost dizzying variety lining the walls, and you’ll likely want to bring them all home!
Blacksmith Antiques | Cambridge, NY
So many treasures to be found here - vintage art and photographs, tin containers and old bottles (perfectly and precariously stacked!). Wondering if the floor boards are going to collapse underneath you is just another exciting part of the experience! ;)
Black Bass Antiques | Bolton Landing
Filled with local and Adirondack nostalgia - from vintage postcards to old photos, signage, and pennants, we’ll definitely be coming here to decorate our lakeside cabin that only exists in our dreams ;)
Antiques Market Place | Lake George
Twenty quality dealers offering an ever-changing inventory of unique and interesting antiques, vintage and collectibles. With a fantastic mix including Adirondack, Americana, Books, Country, Ephemera, Fishing, Folk Art, and more - there’s definitely something for everyone!
