Art Angels Arts and Antique Market Part One

I'm off to visit a new store (well, new for me!) here in Orlando. Would you like to come along?  Well, get ready because here we go! You know you are in the right place when you see an old bike and fresh flowers waiting for you at the door.  Welcome to Art Angels Arts and Antique Market.


I really enjoyed my visit here. This shelf, hutch, shadow box...whatever you call it...above was really, really neat.  They had several of these throughout the store.  EDIT:  They are made from old windows. A few of you have asked. They are pieced together from there with old wood. Notice the old, peeling wallpaper on the back panel.  I big puffy hearted this one but then I saw THIS one...
Oh my! So many wonderful things to browse in each and every booth. They have a nice combination of antique, vintage, repurposed and some new artsy items plus they sell fresh flowers!  Everyone was very friendly.  There is so much more to see.  I'll post the rest of the photos later this week.  Until then...xoxo.

You're right about the old bike outside and the flowers being inviting..I love shops like that....and friendly people in there make it all the more better.

  7. Vicki,
    great shop, great things! I have a couple of boxes on that order, they are in each my boy's rooms and hold their shot glass collections, my older son's Marine mementos, etc. They look really cool and keeps their things out to be enjoyed and orderly. Can't wait to see what else you saw there! Love the bike, we had a black and white one with a basket in our store, I could kick myself for not buying it and it did go fast!

  23. Wow Vicki! I am definitely going to have to check this place out! Love the same window you love! That would look great in my creative space!! The Fancy Flea was good, too! Lots of eye candy~~though I didn't purchase anything. Got lots of great inspiration, though.

    Thanks for sharing!
    Have a wonderful week!

  27. How did I miss this post?! I'm so glad you like our little place. You chose things I like there, it's very hard to not buy everyday.
    I found the bike at a garage sale and stuck it out front. I love it.
    Thanks for visiting and it really does change weekly.
