Antique shop

08 Sep

I was curious about the antique shop that was newly opened 3 blocks away from our house. The store’s name is “Antiques for a Cause”. My cousin who just visited the antique shop said that, there are so many antique products that were displayed and the displays have their own history to tell. So I decided to check out the shop. I was so amazed, that I even bought antique wind chimes. I bought the wind chimes because they attracted me. It was designed with luminous little stars and dolphins with a tribal design on it’s surface. It was so unique so I bought it. I thought it would fit my room’s theme. It’s history is that the owner bought it in an Indonesian store when she went for a vacation at Bali . She had to sell it for $1000 to the antique collector because she has to collect money for the chemotherapy of her mom who was diagnosed with breast cancer. The wind chimes had a sad story but I was inspired to buy it because of it’s history.
