Is there a local small business you LOVE in your town, or around the bend?
Well I have one, truly I have two- Mercantile Antiques I love too. However, my real love is Ugly Trailer Antiques. You see when I crave an hour or two of alone time I grab my diet coke and head down into my local sweet little town of Hurricane UT. to the Ugly Trailer Antiques. I browse and browse and DROOL and browse and I am in love. I have bought some great things; a cute large shutter, a red hutch, antique clothes pins, a vintage scale, door window picture frame, a bench seat, and some smaller items at the Ugly Trailer. This Building used to be a jail long before I was born. So its really big- MORE TO LOOK AT AND MORE to love! There is something at the Ugly Trailer for everyone. If you are looking for that special old collectible; Aqua Ball Jars, books, purses, lamps, furniture, jewelry, collectibles, its all there. I love supporting my local town and businesses and by doing so I visit Ugly Trailer and its always a pleasant visit. HERE ARE JUST SOME OF the Things I found there…
