Today I spent 2 hours at Angel's shopping and taking pictures and I did not even go down every aisle. That's how big it is! There are over 450 booths which means there is something for everyone. It is located one block from Alabama I-85 on exit 62. The building was once a Wal-Mart. I have never left Angel's empty handed. I can always find a treasure and plenty of inspiration. Many of the booths have sale signs and the merchandise is updated frequently. Although I don't have a problem going to a junk store that has some cleanliness issues and have been known to go to some that have no heat or air conditioning-Angel's is one of the nice ones! I like things cluttered enough to be interesting, but orderly enough to be able to see things! Come take a look with me.....
This booth looks crowded in my picture, but it is one of my favorites! I always find something to use in a craft project here-buttons, trims....
But, if you need a more organized view there are many display cases that are up in the front of the store. Each booth has it's own personality - from pricey antiques to shabby chic to 50's Retro to Flea Market.
I took this picture for inspiration. Maybe I will do this with all of our paintbrushes when we finish the house.....and that will be......let's see.......NEVER!! It would look cute hanging in the garden room in the meantime.
For those of you that love vintage linens, there are plenty of booths to check out.
These chairs would look great in my house. Love the wheels on them!
I don't know where I'd put this but I could find room somewhere. Yes, that's me and my camera in the mirror,
I could make place for this piece too!
Thanks for visiting! There is so much more to see in person! I just realized that I didn't take a picture of my buggy and purchases -a bunch of jade-ite colored MelMac, an old school book, bag of unfinished needlepoint, vintage broach and a hat!

Man, I've driven past Angels a million times but never went in. I am totally going to, now!
Wow! that place is so neat. We have small shops around here, but nothing close to that size! I saw some nice things!

Those sort of places are amazing to visit. Sometimes I get mad when I go there and see something I have given away or sold and now want it again!
LOVELY BLUE VICTORIAN CHAIR WITH WHEELS. HAVE A GREEN ONE ALMOST LIKE IT THAT BELONGS TO MY DAUGHTER. MY DAUGHTER'S IS NICER. LOVE THE PICTURES OF ANGEL'S.
XXOO LILLY
I happened to be in Angel's a couple of months ago and found a nice little wicker table to use as a coffee table on my back porch. I put one of those painted trays on it, green with cabbage roses that I was my grandmother B's or Aunt Em's. I also happend to see that cute green chair mentioned by anon. and agree with her. It would look very cute in your kitchen by the fireplace with your jadeware nearby. I like to mix and match formal and informal.
