:: MedleyAnna’s: This adorable gem in West End is the perfect place to buy chalk paint (they’ve got Annie Sloan in all the newest colors), and the furniture to soak it up. Info.
:: Pinebluff Peddler: This dusty clearinghouse for estate sales has old furniture and lamps, letters and personal artifacts. It’s where Southern Pines Escape found the finishing pieces for its historical puzzles. Info.
:: Vintage Barn: Time is arbitrary in this downtown Carthage store filled with antique records, chandeliers draped with costume jewelry and cowboy boots. Tell your friends they were worn by Loretta Lynn. Info.
:: Railside Architecturals & Antiques: Looking for a weathered fireplace mantle, old door, or just a doorknob? Get your fix on fixtures here. Info.
:: Bougie Redneck: This place that calls itself “a little fancy with a healthy dose of redneck” has become a local favorite of those in the upcycling business. You’ll find the cheapest bargains on the old school bus out front. Info.
Bonus: Shop downtown Cameron this Saturday during the town’s Summer Sizzler Sale. The official start time is 10 a.m., but plan to start hitting vendors at 6. You know, before you start sweating all over their stuff.
