Architectural Elements


In the business of antiques, vintage and collecting, there are so many different things to choose from. Over the years I've heard of so many different types of things that people collect or fill their houses with. One of my personal favorites is the architectural stuff. My house is filled with these cool things that often times hold a bit of history with a story to tell as well. I think I'm like a lot of people, I love the old white, chippy, beat up stuff. Here are a few pieces that caught my eye at Country Roads the other day!




 
Some of you know that the interior of Country Roads was built with many, many architectural elements and salvaged woods. My favorite being the old Laguna Beach boardwalk that is sprinkled throughout CR. Our building that houses Country Roads was built in 1919. I think that is part of the charm of not only having an antique business, but having it in a building that has some age to it and has its own story to tell! By the way, if you've got a three day week-end, we will be open on Monday, MLK Day with regular store hours of 10am to 5pm. Take care.

Sue, as always, your pictures make me want to hop on the 5 and get down there. We are actually going to spend next weekend in Seal Beach, so I may pop in and say hi. Saw your comment on my blog and realized I haven't been reading too many in the last couple of "company" filled months either. The days seem to fly by. Ann
