Amy King’s hugemongous warehouse of Euro imports is open all year and it’s where I go when I’m wishing it were Round Top Show Weeks but it’s only lonely July.
During the show, OWA takes a “field trip” and sets up a big booth packed with furniture and basics like bottles & baskets. Put it on your list for sure and see what kind of deals they’ll give you!
It’s great fun to walk through a jolly barnful of noisy chickens and then bring home a colorful dozen of their fresh eggs. Especially if you’re going through a serious Toad-in-a-Hole phase. (questions? click here: recipe)
And it figures I’d meet this one on Valentine’s weekend… what a sweetheart of a face, literally.
The good news? You've discovered The Crush List. The not so good? I haven't been actively posting here for a few years now, which means the never terribly reliable details about my crushes are even more unreliable. Antique vendors have switched venues, shops in town have moved or passed on, donkeys may or may not be in the same front yards... In spite of the risks of massive misdirection I've left the site up in hopes that it still achieves its goal - to inspire you to visit Round Top for the Antiques Show or any time you have the time.
With that said, I leave you to explore this random list of my very favorite things about my very favorite place. I’ve tried to capture the area’s special pieces and parts. Some are big deal, some are small gestures, some are legendary and some are just tiny pip and squeak.
