There are a lot of reasons I'm lucky to live in
Lincoln, Nebraska.
ONE. I work for a really
awesome organization.
TWO. Honest Abe's is here.
THREE. Lincoln has
KILLER places for thrifting and antique shopping. Truly. Some of the very best.
Here are a few of my
absolute favorites. If you live in Lincoln and like looking at beautiful
things, I recommend checking these guys out and at the very least, following
them on Facebook and Instagram.
Hands down my fave. Among other things, I scored the
gorgeous insect prints above our sofa there. The beautiful ladies that run this
place have a
lovely story and on top of that, impeccable taste.
A very close second. Home & Closet has great prices
and as if that weren’t enough, groovy vintage clothing! Like Loft and Craft,
they keep their inventory well managed and beautifully curated so you don’t
feel completely overwhelmed, a common complaint of mine with many second hand
shops!
Lovely place but you tend to get that overwhelmed, claustrophobic
feeling here. There’s A LOT to look at. A big BUUUUT, I’ve had major luck here
with antique dishes and little knicky knocking pieces, so definitely worth your
precious, precious time.
This place is ginormous. You could literally spend all
day there and not see everything. They have a good mix of all eras from super
duper old stuff to Mid Century Modern (my jam!)
Lastly but not leastly, Boon Found & Made has erratic
hours and it’s pricey but holy #$%* they have stunning stuff. They do a lot of
repairing, refinishing and reupholstering too, which is why their merchandise
tends to be on the higher end of the price spectrum.
What say you fellow Lincolnites? Any awesome places I’m missing? Do tell!
This is brilliant. Thank you!
