Southern Lady's Vintage Visits Whistle Stop Antiques


Recently I drove up to North Carolina, not too far over the Georgia line to visit an antique place called Whistle Stop Antiques. It's located 1281 Georgia Rd in Franklin, North Carolina. If you are going to be going that way, try to drop in!










Love the old dough bowl and the molds! The white enamelware makes a pretty and simple display.

Holt Howard set above.

Cheery roosters! Ok....I admit it! I love the chickens!



Enamelware and cake carriers.

Love this hand hewn bench!


Check out the baby buggy.

A great use for old men's ties! Check out the rocker!




Cool old Underwood manual typewriter. One of my new old things to hunt, but I rarely find them here.






Glassware, what-nots, knick knacks and doo-dads GALORE!


Old tools, pottery and so much more!

Tools, tools, tool and MORE tools!

Wow~what a cool shop! We just don't have them in Northern California like that! Real estate costs too much! I could spend the whole day in there!!

Thank you for sharing! The photos are beautiful!
