Marseilles & Ottawa, Illinois

During the weekend my special someone and I, spontaneously decided to take

a drive to Marseilles, IL and ending up also exploring a little

of Ottawa as well

The trip took us to 3 amazing antique stores

I helped myself to some great vintage photos to

add to my collection

Here are a few pictures

First stop "Country at Heart Antiques"

Great items, not many vintage clothing, but they have a few awesome

Victorian dresses and vintage hats

Lots of cool furniture 

Two floors

Flipping through the photos

I found some great ones to take home to paint

Check out the beautiful photo of the man

on the lower left

Definitely a keeper

Cute kitty

Exploring....

Some more exploring

"Hey, let's go down"

"Rural America"

This was a cool cozy place

Furniture, vintage toys and local crafts

Lots to look at

"Grammas's Attic"

You have to stop by this antique store if you ever go to 

Ottawa, IL.

They have 3 floors of great items, modern to antique

If your looking for vintage clothing they don't have a great selection,

but they have a few vintage hats

Many items to view...

I bought a very cool tintype photograph here!

Great trip
