Shop Local!

Lately, i've enjoyed the local shops that good ole West Money has to offer.

and I would like to challenge you, along with challening myself to support local merchants.

I'm all about supporting the local economy and love finding that one of a kind piece from a local vendor.

Antique Alley in WM has been around since the 60's (not a real fact, but i think that's accurate and it sounds right) and has a great number of boutiques, antique malls and shops that tickle my fancy.

I'm making it a point to look local first!
