Scott Antique Market – Aug. 7, 8 and 9

One of the best places to find a lot of unique home décor items is Scott Antique Market. All year, the second weekend of every month (this weekend), the Scott Antique Market comes to the Atlanta Expo Centers. Scott Antique Market is filled with thousands of exhibitors offering the finest selection of antiques and collectibles in two enormous (air-conditioned) buildings total 366,000 sq. ft. of exhibit area overflowing into large outdoor exhibits. This antique show is a treasure hunter’s paradise. You can find a huge selection of antique furniture, pottery, glassware, artwork, and so much more. Atlanta Expo Centers are located one mile east off I-75 on I-285 at Exit 55 (Jonesboro Rd.) just three miles from Atlanta International Airport. The Atlanta Expo Centers split I-285, so a right or left turn off of the exit ramp onto Jonesboro Road will get you to the north and south center. The admission is $5 per person for the entire weekend (a $1.00 off coupon available online). Hours: Friday and Saturday 9 a.m.-6 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m.- 4 p.m. Most vendors accept cash, checks and/or credit cards. Plan on wearing very comfortable shoes. For fun I’ll document some fun finds for your home in another posting.
