Shopping in Canton, GA: Fun Finds

A friend introduced me to a couple of shopping spots in Canton, GA that I had never been to before.  Fun Finds is in Canton, right off of I-75 and it’s a consignment store with lots of home decor.  I talked to the owner, Betty and she said that she has been an interior designer for years and with the economy like it is, decided to open up a consignment shop a couple of years ago and that it is doing well.  It really doesn’t look like a consignment store when you walk in, that’s for sure.

It was fun to browse and see what all is out there.

Pretty table

015

Lots of furniture and accessories.

016

Lots to see.

017

Doesn’t look consignment, does it?

018

If you are in the area, check them out and tell Betty I sent you.

This little bunny planter was too cute, but no I didn’t get it.

Check out this banquette set.  Funky for sure!

035

Carousel horse.

I think these book cases would be a good paint candidate.

039

Side table and dishes.

043

I love barley twist tables like this.

Now here’s what I bought.  My mom needed some new artwork to go in their bedroom, so I found this large canvas painting for $35.  I thought it was a great deal and it looks so good with the new bedding we got.  We are almost finished with the bathroom and I hope to share that next week!  It’s looking beautiful!

055

Just down the road is another stop, Cherokee Close Outs.  I had no idea what to expect in here.

044

There were a lot of things to browse, from food to dishes, but the light fixtures caught my eye.  We needed a new vanity light fixture in my parents new bathroom and I found one for $33 total.  That’s a great deal and I’ll show it to you when I show off the new bathroom.  Coming soon, we’re not quite finished with it yet.

048

Lots of pretty sconces and the prices were very reasonable.

046

Brass mixed with chrome and oil rubbed bronze.

050

Lanterns and vanity styles.

052

These outdoor fixtures are pretty.

054

They even carry some bathroom vanities too.

So, there you have it!  Some shopping spots in Canton, GA that you might never have been to before.  This was my first time, but I can tell you, I’ll go back and check them both out again.

    We have a few consignment shops here in Decatur but none are merchandized as well as this store. Thanks for the eye candy this morning Rhoda!

    My parents live in Canton!! I’ll have to see if my mom has ever been to this shop. We’ll be coming to Georgia for a visit in April, so I’ll have to try to stop by.

    Thanks for writing a post about this shop. I live down the road from it and have always told myself, I must go check it out. Now I MUST go in and do some shopping.

    I can’t decide if I like that red tufted headboard (maybe in another fabric) or if it’s shaped like the Arby’s hat on their logo… either way it’s definitely eye catching…

    On Tori Spelling’s Oxygen TV show she came and visited North Georgia near Canton and totally racked up some awesome finds at stores like this. Who knew 575 North had so many stores full of treasures!

    My son’s family is moving to this area this coming summer! I love to see where you shop. Maybe I will luck into a shopping trip with you when I visit them. Maybe I can convince D.in Law she needs your help! Not everyone should do it all themselves, right?

    Thanks for the heads up on these Rhoda!

    My husband was born in Canton and his parents still live there. I’ll have to make a trip up to these spots one weekend very soon.

    xo,

    Rhoda,

    The bunny planter would have found it’s way home to the Fairfield House! So much to take in and explore. Sounds like my kind of day! I like the painting you got and look forward to seeing your mother’s ‘new’ room!

    Your Friend,
    Deborah

    What a nice consignment store! We have two in Milwaukee that I frequent and I have had good success in selling nicer items there. I really like the painting you found. It reminds me of the one you have hanging in your parent’s porch. I must say you have a good eye for finding nice paintings. Sorry you didn’t buy the bunny. I love bunnies, too, and miss seeing your collection.

    What great stores. You are so lucky to have so many outlet and second hand furniture. Can’t wait to see your parents bedroom and bath.

    I love consignment shops…since the inventory always changes! We have a ton near us in a little historic part of Richmond, VA…so they are a great resource. Another great place to shop for light fixtures is Shades of Light (http://www.shadesoflight.com/) – they have an awesome selection too..so be sure to check them out.

    I’m so glad you live near me, Rhoda! Both of these are a great find, and I will fit a visit in my schedule soon. Your pictures are always gorgeous, too.
    I’m excited about seeing the transformation of your parent’s bedroom and bath. What a blessing for all of you – for you to be able to give that gift to your parents, and for them to enjoy beautiful new spaces!
