The most fabulous antique store around. Good prices, great stuff that translates from store to home perfectly. I absolutely love it! They have a very eclectic collection of retro/vintage/shabby chic finds. Everything from furniture to linens and everything in between. I went this week with Britt and Nicole and I wanted to take home almost everything in sight, but I'm broke. A few weeks ago I picked up this gorgeous huge gold frame for 15 bucks. Love it! The people there are super nice too. When I bought the frame, this sooo cute lady held Max and played with him while I shopped, which was such a life saver. Fellow mom's know EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Check out the website, they keep their featured items pretty current! Here are a few pics from the gold frame trip.
One of the many items I'm lusting after- $175
Inside the store. This picture does the store NOOOO justice at all. Don't really know what I was thinking.
Abode is located in Sugar House (South East Salt Lake) which is soooo cute. It's made up of beautiful old homes and funky shops with a decidedly bohemian vibe. The people who live there are either lifers (Danny's grandparents have lived there since they built their home for $12,000 about 50 years ago) or young, hip families and UU students. In my opinion, Sugar House is to Salt Lake what SoHo is to New York City. I am thus nicknaming it SuHo. I'm not going to lie, I'm pretty proud of that one.

Next time- me and Britt's adventures in Gardener Village.
Hi Jessica! I don't think we've met, but I promised your mom I'd look at your blog! I married into the Hancock family, your parents' good friends! Your little boy lives up the all the praise of how adorable he is! Very cute! We just moved from Utah to Seattle and I actually miss it (never thought I'd think that!)! Anyways,good luck with your house and getting reacquainted with Suho!

Hi it's me again! I'm from Orange County too!! Where are you from? I've lived here for 6 years now and am finally getting used to it. "SuHo" is a cute little area isn't it?!! Cute name! I've never been to Gardener Village, but I really need to make it down there sometime!
ReplyDeleteOk thankyou for writing this. We SWORE we'd never live in Utah...NEVER. Last year we moved up from Northern Califoria and I really do like it hear SO much! I love the city--and there really is so much to do here--especially for families!
ReplyDeleteI'm hitting up Abode asap--I die over places like that.
