Great Scott! Antique Market, that is.

9 Jan

Tomorrow is going to be another wretched rainy day, so why not make today the last time you watch Muppets’ Christmas Carol on VHS until next December and spend Saturday at the Scott Antique Market in the Atlanta Expo Center! And with this $1 off admission coupon and the assurance that “swearing, vulgarity and crass behavior is [sic] not tolerated,” you really can’t say no.

And to sweeten the deal, Top Design/Martha Stewart’s own Eddie Ross will be personally guiding tours around the antique mart this weekend to tell you what to buy (for a fee). Even though I love love love Eddie, Wisit is the only top designer I would pay to shop with because have you heard his golden operatic voice? (via Daily Candy)


Between Highland Row‘s sale on the first weekend of the month, Scott Antique Market on the second, and visits to Kudzu Antiques and Chamblee’s Antiques Row spread out over the remaining weekends, you could literally never buy a new item again for the rest of your life. I was introduced to Chamblee for the last week and was lucky enough to find a Georges Briard olive dish with a tiny gold serving fork on a chain attached to the dish at Antique Factory! It was truly one of my favorite vintage finds.

    Great suggestion. I went up to Chamblee’s antique row a few weeks back, and there are some great shops up there.

    Hey, how much is admission? I don’t see the info on their Web site. Thanks again!

    I’m going to be on the lookout for one of these:

    It comes with reusable plastic hors d’oeuvres “feather quill” picks! How refined!
