Country Boys is a great resource if you're ever looking for specific pieces for older homes. They have a huge collection of newel posts, shutters, windows, doors, fireplace mantles and other architecture necessities that are hard to come by. I think some of their prices are a little high, so don't forget to haggle down. Today I walked away with a Smurfs (drinking) glass for a friend who had one that broke. I promised I'd quite with big projects for a while (until on my drive home I picked up a desk from someone's trash....but that story is for another day).
Do you know of any local salvage yards to recommend? What's your favorite place to go "digging"?
