I instantly fell in love with this unique antique store in Holly, Michigan. It is called Battle Alley Arcade Antiques and if you ever get up that way it is a MUST see! We stopped here after our Victorian tea on Saturday and I could have spent the rest of the day there.
"The interior of the store has been restored to look and feel like you are walking down a quaint 19th century street of shops that is home to 25 dealers of a wide variety of quality antiques and fine collectibles".
It has these gorgeous victorian corbels and windows just like you are looking inside another building. I was speechless (and that does not happen often. LOL)
I love this look of the lace in the windows and the antique corbels~
One of the many, many rooms inside this wonderful store~
Goodies galore as far as the eye can see~
This is just a small glimpse of the *hallway* with rooms off to the right side~
My sweet granddaughter walking down the hallway~
Another room jam packed with wonderful antiques~
I just had to take a photograph of this display~
More old victorian trim~
Lovely display of antique baby goodies. Aren't they precious... Now I wish I had taken more pictures, but I didn't know how many my flash card on my camera would hold so I stopped snapping. I will most certainly be taking more next time I am up that way and hopefully I will have more time to spend there. DD is 7 and 1/2 months pregnant and has had some problems so we didn't stay long, but I am so glad we found this wonderful and unique place. I just loved gazing at all the antique lovelies and I hope you did too.
Blessings ~

What a beautiful looking store!! U could spend hours there I bet! Hope all is well with your daughter.
The corbels and the windows...I would be in heaven there! Very beautiful! I googled it, and it's only 140 miles away, so maybe it would be doable sometime! Could you please email me the address? lorhen82@gmail.com Thanks! ~Lori

What a fabulous place you found for antiquing. That's just the sort of place I would love to visit someday. Looks like they have lots of great things there.
hola, que precioso es todo, pero me enamore de ese carrito de bebé, voy a ser abuela por primera vez, y estoy muy feliz, le preparo cosas a mi nieto que llegara en noviembre. hasta pronto, espero encontrarte de nuevo, soy algo torpe con el ordenador y suelo perder estas paginas tan preciosas, saludos de Nola, espero que tú me encuentres a mi.
Rough translation from Nola above which I found online:
"hello, that's all lovely, but I love this baby cart, I will be grandmother for the first time, and I'm very happy, you cook things that came to my grandson in November. see you soon, I hope to meet you again, I feel somewhat awkward with the computer and losing ground these pages so beautiful, greetings from Nola, I hope you find me.
