Consign It

OK...never put my dog in a bag before, but she was going in because I had to stop to check this place out {love how her hair is all crazy-good dog}.  Consign It, located Mason Street in Greenwich Connecticut, was on my list to see when I was driving this past weekend from Massachusetts to New York.  Maggie was actually quite obliging and so was my daughter (who was eager to get to see her relatives for Easter-if you are wondering why I haven't mentioned my hubby that's because he had to work all weekend)!  I knew I would not have that much time to do my leisurely shopping and gawking.  I practically rushed through the whole place in thirty minutes and then my dog became restless and so did my daughter.  Greenwich, CT is lovely and I would live there in a heart beat!  I love coming upon charming towns (that I want to relocate to).  Consign It was unbelievable-as you will see below.  Chuck full of the most wonderful finds.  

I feel like I am giving away a secret.  I don't mind if it is for you, my readers! Hee!  Actually, I first heard of this wonderful place from Good Bones, Great Pieces blog.

When we finally found Consign It, and it came into view, I was actually squealing with joy!  My daughter couldn't believe I was behaving that way.  I couldn't wait to get inside and wander around.  I knew it would be great. She wanted to know, "Why are you so happy to see old beat up furniture?"  

This was the first scene I encountered.  I said, "I am in love".  Glittering glory and antique splendor...I was so excited to be there looking at it all.  This is seriously one of my new favorite places to shop.  Hours from Boston.  However, when I visit my family in NY, I can just make a wee little detour to shop here.  

Two floors of treasures and very unique furniture.  If I had more time, I know I would have walked out with something.

I am looking for a mirror for over my sideboard in my dinning room.  This one is about the right size.  I like the details on this one.  Unfortunately, it takes me awhile to settle on one.

Another arch angel painting. I have come across at least three in the past couple of months.  Weird!  But I love them though.

Tall candlesticks are really cool!

Outside was as good as the inside.  Furniture everywhere!  I just wonder if they leave it out in the rain.  Great chairs await new fabric!

Below,  cute little upholstered settee and chair for a child's room.  I love the monkey fabric that they used on them.  I would leave it just as they are.

Too much to see in only 30 minutes.  I had to move on and get to NY.  We had a really nice weekend visiting family.  Traffic on the way back was horrendous!

I can't stop thinking about this place and will have to go back.
