Shopping alert: Trying to find that one-of-a-kind‚ collectible antique? New or vintage furniture? Carpets from around the world? Luxury bedding?
All that and more can be found at Finderskeepers Market‚ where owners James Snowden and Randall Terrell have assembled an eclectic mix of just about everything they can think of under one roof.
“It’s something that I’ve done for friends and family since I was a teenager‚” Snowden says of his collecting. “I always wanted to have my own shop but was a little afraid. After being a children’s librarian for about 12 years‚ I decided to just go for it.”
Since opening in May 2006 in the historic W.T. Hanly House near downtown‚ Snowden says the community has embraced the new business wholeheartedly.
“I think people are really excited that we’re here‚” he says. “We’re a little bit different than other shops in the area. We work to make our inventory really unique‚ so people can find something special every time they come in. And for me‚ it’s just great to wake up and go to work knowing I’ll enjoy what I’m doing.”
