The "TOO" sign is a good example of the type of items that you find hidden inside this little antique store in our small Hunterdon County New Jersey rivertown. The letters hang on the original clapboard walls accompanied by some rare Spongeware Bowls.
This charming little doll sits in a primitive cupboard in the store. The primitive cupboard shelf features original paint, while the doll features a hand stitched nose and mouth and button eyes.
A vintage metal porch bench in great old barn red original paint accompanies a hayfork, and an old gameboard in the foreground, while a painted cottage style dresser glows in the background in it's marvelous yellow-gold original paint.
This photo shows the annex gallery in Brooks. It features a hand hooked rug, a country table, primitive folk art paintings, architectural antiques, and funky dressers and chests of drawers.
