Pretty’s Antique Empire Expands

Posted on October 16, 2017 by Sheila Morris

Pretty’s antique empire continues to grow with the grand opening of her second booth at the Little Mountain Antique Mall and Café on 1528 Main Street in Little Mountain, South Carolina 29075. Check out the Little Mountain Unlimited facebook page and take a close look at these photos taken today.

Ta-Dah! New Booth on the entrance level at Little Mountain!

Look for Pretty’s booths (she is dealer #221) and the other 60 dealers who happily join her in the nearly 15,000 square feet of floor space there. Follow Little Mountain on facebook for special music events at the café, super sales and just plain fun for all antique lovers. Then take a day trip to the midlands of South Carolina and plan to spend several hours wandering through an antique mecca with the added attraction of southern cooking comfort food when you need to take a break.

Don’t forget to visit her booth (dealer # 221) at Three Rivers Antiques, 615 Meeting Street, West Columbia, South Carolina 29169 if you’re in the Columbia area looking for a place to indulge your antique addiction.

Spike, Charly and I are very proud of Pretty – she and her sidekick Shelley work way too hard every day, but their booths look awesome. They always have something you can’t live without!

Stay tuned.

    I can see when I finally get down to visit, I will need to rent a U-Haul for the trip home. Tell Pretty her booth looks beautiful and inviting. She really has a flare for interior design.
    Congratulations!!

        You will Never be able to keep up with Pretty!
        We laugh that my view when we’re walking for the past 17 years has been from behind her…not a bad view. But trust me, you can’t keep up! We have all the appropriate foot soaking necessities!!
