I Found Vintage Home Decor at The Shops At The Old Shed

Location: The Shops At The Old Shed
3236 Lee Hwy, Weyers Cave, VA
I had the perfect amount of time to do a quick shop through of the Shops At The Old Shed in Weyers Cave Virginia. I've picked this place before but I've kept it under wraps because it is kinda my little honey-hole of good deals on smalls and sometimes even bigger pieces! But I'm feeling generous and think it's time to let you all in on one of my best kept secrets. The S.A.T.O.S. is setup like an antique mall but feels more like a thrifting shopping experience with these amazing prices. I mean... Where else can you find a cream, 6 ft, vintage Christmas tree for $10? Let me know what ya'll think of my shopping experience at the S.A.T.O.S! Thanks for watching me shop for Vintage Home Decor at The Shops At The Old Shed.

Candles for sure "secret project"

[@Mel-lw5dg]

I knew as soon as she said the one jar’s glass was too thin! 🕯️

[@stephanierice1984]

​@@Mel-lw5dg I thought the same when she said that!

[@MadsBee3]

There’s a booth in my store that does this, so ever since she first mentioned it I knew! 🎉 So fun!

[@julieschwartz2135]

I love booths like these that are not that curated, best way to find treasures at a steal.

[@lvw3071]

When she said: for the project the glass might be to thin, I knew for sure it was candles!

[@ThePosyCo]

Hmm… candle making, possibly? 🤔 ❤️ I enjoy your videos!!

[@bobbipetty7411]

No people or blaring music, nice

[@MsKatillac]

Great haul! That little green shelf thing is for holding your blow dryer (barrel fits into that hole) and a curling iron (across the two top hooks). I have one painted a distressed cream color that I got years ago. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE those turtle trinket boxes! Those are my favorites of this haul!

[@susanhonkoski7706]

Amanda, don’t you just want to redesign the booth decor you walk in to? You are so good at displaying your objects and that’s why you’re such a pleasure to follow!!! Watching you from this rainy day in California 🙋🏻‍♀️☔️🌂🌧️

[@Brabronacus]

I think the green wall rack is for baseball bat, the ball sits on the cut out circle, and on the pegs hang your glove and your hat. Probably that green in homage to the green monster at Fenway Park.

[@melodymccrary]

Yes it is. My brother had one in the 70’s.

[@susanegyud6219]

Yep, baseball bat, ball and glove holder, plus a space for a trophy!

[@monicahennessy5648]

Interesting! I looked at it to try to figure out what I would use it for. My thoughts went to jewelry! Paint it, put a dowel rod in to hang bracelets. Hang necklaces off the pegs. Not sure what I would do with hole! Maybe rest a trinket dish in it? But now I can't unsee baseball and Fenway Park! 😅

[@nelliott9322]

That makes sense! The 2 “hooks” at the top aren’t level so a bat holder makes perfect sense! A dowel would be slanted.

[@lauracallaham1617]

The two hooks at the top would be cute with coffee mugs.

[@sherryhudson9075]

Those glass pieces would make beautiful candles for Valentine’s Day

[@amybaize5503]

I had a green wall hanger like that. It was for my softball gear. Bat laid across the top, ball went in hole, gloves hung from pegs…

[@kmarie1351]

The secret project must be candles!

[@kats3969]

That’s what I was thinking too!

[@bitaP79]

"Secret project" = candles 9,5 times out of 10…🤪

[@chattykathie7129]

Every booth in that antique mall looks like a normal ugly booth. Yours is so good. Why can’t everybody do a booth like you seriously? You should have people pay you to do their booths. They would sell so much more. You are good!

[@chattykathie7129]

Yours is beautifully curated

[@SprucedandGussied]

Honestly, not everyone is as gifted as Amanda in staging. I have 15 years of experience of selling and even i struggle to stage things properly. I think some people either have less time to do so, or perhaps its just a way for them to try to unload some stuff. But like someone said in a comment, you're going to have a better chance of finding some hidden deals/gems in booths like these. The super curated booths almost always charge a premium beccause they've done the work for you to give you ideas how to use the products.

[@marypaquette8705]

Need to use your filter Hun😮

[@marypaquette8705]

Humm, apothecary, containers, maybe "Dark Academia" thinking of doing a small room, not used for anything, just stuff, old books, dark walls, love your dark walls in your booth, old bookcases, apothecary jars, with unusual stuff in side them old world globes, maybe an old stuffed owl, brass lamps, 1930's desk, large wooden handled, paint brushes in a brass, coal carrier, on the floor, old ceramic, dog or cat, that chalk board, dried money flowers, old door stops, throw in a bit of Egyptian revival stuff, ya I have plans, try it what could it hurt, love ya❤ you are a bright light of sunshine for me this Winter!😊

[@cjdray2]

Do you price your items before you pack them up for fall or luckets?

[@susanlandin4485]

Love all that pretty glass, but the turtles were my favorite!

[@sandyamckaysmith4251]

Sorry Amanda but we are going to need a few more details about the "secret project". Is it for resell? Is it a hobby? Lots of clear glass in that haul. I had a thought about the grey clock thing. It would make a great trash can for those candy wrappers.

[@maggiebrown9690]

Hilarious use of the wicker clock thing!

[@denisemcgovern2485]

Every time you pickup an item for your product, I think, that would look great to make a candle in. ❤

[@memphis2375]

That place is a gold mine!! I love your passion Amanda!! Can’t wait for the super secret project!! 😊

[@katen1228]

Dang, there prices are great!

[@littleluluscraps]

❤ ack... secret projects... hurry hurry hurry

[@Tlgross]

Omgosh Amanda, you are hilarious and fun to watch! Love it... " say it with me..." LOL

[@leeleescraps]

What a lovely little store. Great picks and great prices. Can’t wait for another booth reset.

[@donnacorkhill]

Amazing prices. Great score on all your pieces.That secret project you keep talking about, puts me on the edge of my seat. I musy say, not to mean, but the booths there you put them to shame. You have amazing taste and eye for all you do. Till the next time, we will be waiting to see you again.

[@sallymoffit3751]

Canterbury Cottage makes the cutest things out of old clocks. Some are done with greenery as you mentioned and some are done with a bird nest. Etc

[@debbiepatrick4111]

That green wood piece you got is a blow dryer/curling iron holder.

[@bethkeller6172]

I really like videos like this. And I really like your personality, you don’t take yourself too seriously. You’re smart and funny.

[@denimeier8675]

that's a super cute sugar bowl with the gold lid and a spot for your sugar spoon! great for a coffee/tea bar!

[@elainebolten5205]

Neat finds! That was nice she let you keep shopping. If I was in the area I would sure stop in!

[@trinasyoutube]

11:42 my grandma collected strawberries she’d have loved that giant candle.

[@jeaniemarkel360]

Thanks for taking us along on your antique/thrift store shopping. You picked up some amazing things!! Btw...I love your coffee table!

[@beccariddle]

I know what I WANT the “super secret project” to be. (Fingers crossed)

[@katiestacy8964]

Those marble coasters omg 😍

[@stephanierice1984]

I'm thinking candle's! They'd be so pretty in those dishes

[@Homesablessing]

I bet this milk-glass bowl is the piece in a previous video where you sold a milk-glass piece and couldn't remember what one it was. Thank you for sharing! Treasure Trove for sure!

[@user-zc6nt8dy7u]

The green painted wooden piece is to display a baseball bat, ball and gloves hang from the pegs. Just FYI. Love your channel keep up the good work!

[@julielozano1852]

It’s for a curling iron and hairdryer I think? 🤔

[@carlaking3459]

I thought you forgot the mg bowl !! It's unique and I love mg!! Can't wait to see the clock base plant holder !! Sounds whimsical and will draw people in !!

[@ginacrusco234]

Great pieces! I love your joy over finding that bargain Christmas tree.

[@ginamaria2579]

Girl your videos are so much fun ☺️

[@normajeanplusone9772]

Looking forward to the super secret project. Always enjoy your videos. ❤

[@SRBTeam]

Great pieces!

[@karengleason6830]

I just love your energy

[@elainefrick8955]

Ashtrays make GREAT plant saucers!

[@skylaanderson8424]

Totally lost on your secret project!! lol Can’t wait to hear what it is!!

[@Inspireddeborah61]

Love finding treasures with you Amanda!!

[@rbk2855]

You have such a good eye for decor. I’m excited to see when you start your home projects!

[@tamichaffee932]

Yeaaa... a new video!! And you found sooo many good items at way low prices!!

[@sarah.fb.lindsay]

Annnnnd I know what I’m doing tomorrow!!! Excited to see what treasures I find 🙌🙌🙌

[@claudiaa.6378]

EVERYTHING IS SO NICE FOR YOUR BOOTH😃

[@moniquevieira-huestis8114]

I love thrift finds! Can’t wait to hear more about the super secret project! ❤

[@oneofakindfindsjunktique9708]

Im surprised you didn't pick up the chalkboard. I tend to find the items that dont have a price or are NFS too. Can't wait to find out the super secret project......perhaps a candy bar? 🤔

[@kristyrowe9221]

Super secret!! Love it. Candy store display is my guess.

[@kristyrowe9221]

Or melting candles in the bowls? The turtle wood trays would be great for that.....

[@robynmcculley828]

Amanda - love your picking style and all the treasures.

[@leanneschultz4752]

Let me say those turtle’s are adorable! Plus always loved the old glass candy dishes too! I cherish a few pieces that belonged to my Mom. Love your videos always real, entertaining & inspiring!

[@user-gb6ju5ud7x]

Hi Amanda! when will you be letting us in on your "secret project" ? And when will you start your Valentine display?

[@maggiebrown9690]

So mysterious Amanda!

[@Janice_thingsthatsell]

I look forward to your videos. Your booth looks great and inspires me to style my booth well. ❤

[@tinachris31085]

Around the nine minute mark, I realized the special project might be 🕯️ 🕯️🤔

[@brendaweaver2997]

Secret candle making project 😊

[@jensta1000]

I bought a similar off white tree before Christmas and made an amazing bust tree.

[@Jonelle818]

So glad you film close to where I live…I’m keeping notes on all these great places to visit! I need to head down 81 more often. But now that my kids have graduated from JMU and VMI I’m not there as often. I will for sure go to Luckets when you do that show, I’m dying to see your booth in person. Can’t wait to know what the super secret thing is too 🤣

[@wesleyhielscher6972]

I have a feeling you are going to be pouring candles into the vintage dishes. Side note: no way i could have passed up that antique chalkboard for $6 😮

[@lkp2186]

Do the candles in beautiful curated glassware. 🙌🏻

[@lisapellitier2450]

I love the green shelve

[@hwelch2]

11:45 the strawberry vases look like they may be made by Des Pots ... they make some very cool pots and vases. Thanks for letting us tag along .😊

[@DanaBahn]

Going to the comment to see who else thinks that candles are the “secret project”. I’m getting some XO Macenna vibes. 😊❤

[@PeonyLadyKim]

Another awesome video, I always enjoy watching your videos. You've got the people guessing (reading comments). Hmmmm....they are saying you are planning to make candles with your finds. I guess we have to be patient and wait until you are ready to fill us in.

[@julielozano1852]

So the green bathroom thing is for curling iron, then hairdryer 👍🏻 I had one in the 90s 😂😂 love your videos!! Keep em coming 😁

[@docevika6202]

That bowl with silver rim on top and a sticker is actually crystal and the information of 20% pbo means it is lead crystal and probably not suitable for food, just as decor.

[@cynthiahudson5228]

I’ve been to the country club in Staunton! Love your sweatshirt ❤

[@shellisannes464]

I was obsessively looking for green clothes the past year, it looks great with my pink hair. Then I found out a few weeks ago, green is really in. I love green with pink or purple because they are such high contrast. I love that green shelf, it would also be cute with white daisies with the yellow centers 🤔

[@cindyrae2605]

If you haven't already, try an old-fashioned electric heating pad for your back. They work miracles for back pain!

[@aleesiauh]

Really hoping Amanda single handedly brings back clear glass. Cause I can't sell that to save my life 😅

[@AmyBC123]

It would be sweet if your secret project was candles with XOMaCenna! You mention her a lot

[@heatherhoward4289]

Im guessing candles! Yay!

[@heatherhoward4289]

I think that green shelf thing is to hold a curling iron, hair dryer in the hole and whatever can hang from pegs. Flat irons, scrunchies. Lol

[@sharontrujillo]

...Libby...Extremely popular company.. cotton balls were inside all libby products back then!!!!

[@baugust4775]

That green shelf is for baseball. A bat rests across the top hole is to rest a ball and the hooks are to hand your mit and awards. But i love your ideas to restyle it.

[@Cindicado]

I can see a dramtic Staghorn fern mounted in that empty clock case! Check them out! Great video. thanks

[@theshananigatorksh7282]

I love it! Your displays are always amazing and very inspiring. Do you measure most items or create a mock setup at home before setting up the displays in the booth? Everything (size wise) just seems to slide right into place.

[@raewynrush6754]

Have watched all your videos and love them, when is your super secret project coming out

[@gritandglam1815]

Not sure if you bought the three toe bowl with birds. If you did, it's Hofbauer The Byrdes Collection

[@paranormalnora]

Nice

[@kathleenjamieson7550]

Love the turtles, the purple glass lidded box, & black cigar ashtray! Are you making candles?!

[@debbievontress8472]

Those heavy clear glass ashtrays are cigar ashtrays & might by crystal. I recently sold one in my booth that still had label saying it was crystal.

[@lisahunt3373]

Candles!

[@gloriaalbrecht9929]

So when do you show us the super secret project?? Looking forward to it, I'm sure it will be amazing!

[@you-niquebou-tique4320]

Oh my gosh, I just purchased a set of those marble coasters today for $4. Everything is expensive at our thrift markets...

[@calisworldcalisworld2152]

I love your videos and your personality, how long does it take you to make your videos though? And what app do you use? I love them

[@tamraanderson4225]

1000x 👍🕊🐑

[@lynetteenright]

Candles 🕯 gotta be candles

[@user-cn9iz5xl8l]

It’s gotta be candles!

[@Christie-gp2cy]

Very interesting video. Lots of beautiful items. What city and state is this store locatd? the sign above he door just shows 3236 Lee Highway. Thanks! I apologize if I missed if you mentioned it.

[@amandasmercantile]

VA! In Weyers Cave

[@barbarawhite3217]

I love to shop with you.

[@karen.asecondchance]

Great finds....does clear glass sell for you? or is that part of the secret project?😊

[@Arnhildnilsen]

Is that green wall rack for kitchen stuff? Rolling pin on top😅

[@kristyrowe9221]

Shelf is for curling iron hairdryer. I am sure you will come up with something great.

[@lindafrance9192]

Several people earlier said it was a holder for baseball, glove, bat and trophy as some had them. Since it is wood, that seems more likely than for a curling iron which you wouldn’t want to put on the rack while hot.

[@bevegriffith9858]

As usual loved your video🎉❤❤

[@kayscheuer9159]

❤😊

[@user-ct4lf3vf4o]

when will we see the secret project?

[@kiraberinger]

Are you doing candles as the secret project? 😄

[@ellenrawls7557]

Just call it " The Project"

[@tammybailey2264]

Are you familiar with the Dillwyn Virginia area, going this weekend from southwest Virginia, my son is a state trooper in that area, give me some good places to go junkin!!

[@baugust4775]

Secret project.......my guess.......candles in vintage containers?
