🍂 Let’s take a little trip down memory lane…

What’s one thing your grandparents had in their house that you wish you still had today?

Was it a pie safe? A quilt your grandmother made? An old butter dish? A rocking chair? A cast iron skillet? A cookie jar that somehow made cookies taste better? 🤍

We hear so many wonderful stories from people who visit the shoppe, and it reminds us that antiques aren’t just things—they’re pieces of someone’s life.

Tell us yours in the comments. We’d love to read every one. 🦉❤️

(P.S. Don’t be surprised if you find something in the shoppe that brings back a memory you forgot you had.)

📍 Visit us inside Upscale Antiques & More in historic downtown Covington. You’ll find Auld Acquaintances tucked away in the back right corner of the first floor beneath our little wooden awning.

Another one sold! 🥳 The chippy green shelf found its forever home quickly—thank you all so much! 💕Because you loved it, I just added another one to the floor. This one is a slightly different shade of green, but it packs that exact same "chippy goodness" you’re looking for! 🪵✨ I also have a few other new creations. (The color green is my current obsession).

Though it seems a bit early, I am already working on Fall and Christmas decor. 🍁🎄 For all my fellow "Christmas in July" lovers, I have a shelf unit fully stocked and ready for you!

I've included several beautiful Nativity items. After all, Christmas is all about celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. 🌟

Come check out these new pieces and browse the rest of our vintage decor.

Does anyone else still LOVE shabby, distressed, crackly, and chippy finishes? 🙋‍♀️

Lately, I’ve been learning some incredible new techniques from Bailey at Reclaimed Grace. She has truly inspired me and got my creative juices flowing again! She is so genuine, inspiring, and talented. If you want to learn these techniques yourself, you absolutely need to check out her page and YouTube videos.

Here are my inspiration pieces:
🟢 The Green Shelf: My absolute FAVORITE! It’s so chippy and crackly. The heavy chippy-crackle finish looks just like vintage gingerbread porch trim.
💙 The Display Cabinet: Another favorite of mine! The distressed, vintage finish turned out even better than expected. Plus, the backboard looks like fancy designer velvet—but shhh, it’s not! 🫢 It was a total, beautiful accident.
🪴 The Green Wooden Tote: Look closely and you'll see cute heart cutouts on the end panels! I left some of the natural wood tones on the handle and interior to balance the crackle. TOO CUTE!
💕🌸 The Round Wooden Tray: This piece features a lovely floral scripture transfer. It leans a bit more distressed and aged rather than chippy, but it has so much character!
🪑 The Chippy White Stool & Chicken Chair: While these two aren't my own work, they will fit right in with your chippy decor collection!

Let me know what you think in the comments!

If you love these pieces as much as I do, they are available at Auld Acquaintances in Covington, TN. ✨
