Chicago Finds: Antique Malls

This past weekend I finally went out and really explored Chicago’s antique shops and I am so glad I did. I can’t believe it took me this long… I only bought a couple small things for myself, but I am seriously considering going back for the lucite chandy at the bottom.
Here is what I got for myself:
a little metal “a”

A precious little bowl I plan on filling with moss balls
Here are some of the goodies I sadly had to pass up:

How amazing would this piece be with a new shade and painted base?

The ikat upholstery was in perfect condition, and lucite?? Amazing.

Over a powder room sink? Yes please.

 And here are some I am still considering…
I am still dreaming of this piece.
 
And this guy… a lucite chandy. I need this. Problem is, I want it for my closet and its a little bit more money than I’d like to spend on my closet. Still considering.
 Best of all, the prices were really pretty reasonable. So happy to have discovered these gems. What are your favorite antique shops in Chicago? I need my next fix this weekend!
