a new month. . .

and new merchandise!

Furniture, pottery, collectibles, and so much more is being moved into On The Square Antiques! Our dealers have been shopping and trucks are delivering. Stop by soon and see all the new arrivals!

The DEB's both have new furniture. Joyce has a cottagey/primitive bookcase/china cabinet in a soft shade of yellow--so pretty with those bright green and yellow dishes and stemware!

Pat also has a yellow hutch and a wonderful green cottagey/primitive china cabinet. Cookie jar collectors will love to visit Pat's room and see the collection she has for sale!
Anne & Ann have brought in a selection of antique bottles-- all colors, especially purple/lavender, a wonderful Watt pottery pitcher, vintage "cottagey" prints,a beautiful gold framed beveled mirror,and a wonderful primitive cabinet, filled with antique/vintage kitchen utensils.

Linda is back from Breyerfest with loads of collectible horses and Hagen-renaker figurines!

Cottage & Cabin Interiors just delivered two new footstools--a striking animal print and a sweet toile stool and matching pillow.

Miss Hettie's has an distressed "anthropologie style" square table and 4 white mis-matched chairs. The green pitcher and tumblers and ruby red glasses sparkle against the white table.
Also, available "in the window" is a hand-painted child's rocker (courtesy of Sweethomewherever) and a precious wicker doll carriage with hand-sewn linens!

We all hope to see you soon in the shop! Please call us at 334-566-2601 if you have any questions!

Extraordinary Needlework. . .

and more!

Kathy hand stitches wonderful sayings--perfect for many occasions. Many are available framed and ready for hanging.

Kathy also offers one-of-a kind pincushions constructed from vintage baby shoes! These are precious and make a great gift for the seamstress, new grandmother, or collector.

Stop by "the Nook" and see all of Kathy's work intermingled with Cottage and Cabin Interiors!

and then there was. . .

Miss Hettie--me actually (the writer of the blog/office manager/problem solver/you name it).

I began my blog last year--naturally I volunteered to write the one for the shop. Most people know me as Gail--the Miss Hettie (my mom's) name was a suggestion from a dear friend. My real desire is to have a "Venue House" named Miss Hettie's, but it's just not in the cards at the moment for this "dealer".

At the antique shop, I occupy the front window and the mezzanine. My real love is re purposing old furniture, but it's becoming difficult to find the old things.

Along with my reclaimed furniture, I sell a variety of items--beautiful vintage cake plates, retro kitchen items, tea cups, punch bowls, figurines, samplers and many other items.
I also collaborate on different projects--hand-crafted benches, painted furniture, and the Sweet Peas line of infant and toddler dresses.

Cottage & Cabin Interiors

aka Debbie & Bobby

A husband & wife team that builds, paints, sews, finds exceptional objects--does just about everything!

Cottage and Cabin Interiors is actually a collection of fabric furnishings and furniture pieces redesigned from salvaged finds. Custom window treatments, slipcovers, and nursery bedding available by special order. Samples and unique pieces available at the antique shop.

Located in "the Nook" (under the staircase), they have the merchandise packed in. Stop by and see the new look they bring to our shop.

Horsing around. . .

horses, horses, and more horses (and more animals)!

Linda has been an avid collector of Breyer model horses all of her life--now she is sharing her knowledge and expertise with our customers.

Linda specializes in Bryer model horses (of course), Hagen-Renaker figurines, and other collectibles.

She recently added glassware to her inventory, such as the green Soreno pictured below.

One More Thing. . .

yes, we always need "one more thing" and this is the name of another group (dare I say "dealers") at the shop. Mary & Peggy also travel out of state to shop and always bring interesting and unique finds to the shop from vintage cabinets, comfortable chairs, unique doors, to china, fabric, and paintings.Mary & Peggy also occupy the vault--a concrete steel re-enforced vault that is original to the building. The vault is stocked with small glassware, bolts of decorator fabric, a wonderful mirror, and even a small wicker table.

the DEB's

Yes, another "group". . .

Actually the DEB's began as two sisters and a sister-in-law, all sharing the same room/space! That was fun--actually entertaining! One sister soon decided the antique business wasn't for her and the other two expanded into two then three room/spaces.

Joyce's merchandise includes a wonderful enamel top kitchen table, beautiful old library table, drop leaf desk and many other items. Pat migrated to the blue room--yes, it is painted baby blue--and the back room (my favorite room after the mezzanine). The back room has so much character--painted concrete wall, brick exposed wall, exposed beams, heavy wooden door with a transom window above to let in extra sunlight.
