A Side Road and a Wrong Turn

When you take a side road and a wrong turn, 
you just never know what you might find. 
In this case, Architectural Antiques. 

Bible Study

Just the seeing the place and I knew it was gonna be a winner.
And even better, the owner - Wayne -  invited me to take pictures. 
How cool is that? 

Snow Birds: Keep the white stuff from sliding off your roof in an avalanche and banging up whatever’s underneath.

This place is like a museum of architectural details. 

Yard Sticks

And some pretty creative use of things. 

Baseball Bat railing spindles

I kept thinking if only I was Joanna Gaines, 
I would have been able to summon up some ideas of what to do with this stuff. 

A ceiling of doors.

Shutters to go with tons of old windows. 

Always More

This was such a cool place. 
Room after room of architectural antiques. 
So if you have an old house, 
you just might find what you need here.

I enjoyed you photographs as much as I enjoy getting lost in back roads. I'll definitely check out this place.

I am with you on the Joanna Gaines comment. I think some of us are meant to document and some are meant to use. Maybe we could just hire Joanna. I am happy be a documenter though.
