Ever been to Old Time Pottery? It’s a huge, warehouse-sized store full of all kinds of home decor, accent furniture, kitchen wares, linens, lamps…you name it, they’ve probably got it, and the price is probably right.
A couple of weeks ago, I snapped a few photos for you. To give you an idea of the size of this place, there’s still about 1/4 of the length of this aisle behind me as I took this photo.
The floral department is one small (relatively speaking) corner of the store.
They usually have a huge table piled with remnants of home decor fabric. It’s sold by the piece (they don’t cut it for you), but at $4.96/yd, it’s a bargain. This week, it was on sale for $3.96 a yard, and I’ve seen it even lower.
I liked this fabric a lot. The pattern was very large; this photo shows about 1/2 yard. But, I didn’t get it. Why, I don’t know. Kicking myself!
Cotton sheet sets, 300-450 thread count, $19.96 any size. I have a sheet set from OTP, and I like it very well.
These Pottery Barn-esque nightstands were $49.96 and came in white, red, black and green
There have all kinds of dishes and glassware, including glass domes, for your cloche or mini-cake plate projects.
If you are having trouble finding a cheese dome at the thrift store, you can get one here for just $3.99, not that much more than you would pay second-hand. The slightly larger one is just $2.99, for some reason.
Old Time Pottery has 29 stores in 10 states. If you’re ever near one, it’s a fun place to shop for your home!

It looks like a great place to shop!! I didn't see one in Virginia, but there's one in NC, about 30 minutes from where I went to college and maybe an hour and a half from my grandma's house. :)
I've never been, but it looks really similar to Garden Ridge.
This place reminds me of Garden Ridge - I haven't been there in ages. You must allow plenty of time to shop and wear your comfy sneakers!
It's been a long time since I was at a Garden Ridge, but if memory serves, I would say OTP is similar but in a slightly "lower class" way. I mean that in a good way :) It's more warehouse-y, and I'd say prices tend to be lower.
We have a Old Time Pottery here in Cleveland. It's an amazing store and you have got me thinking that I really need to take a trip there some time soon. Have a great weekend!

LOVE Old Tyme Pottery. HATE that they closed the one out by us.
Ugh we don't have a OTP here but I have heard all about it and want to go so bad!
I am glad I ran across your blog, its very cute. I am officially a new follower :)
I have an OTP about about 30 minutes away from me. I haven't been in a while and your post inspired me to make another visit!
Is this the one in North County? We were headed to Illinois the other day and I saw it off of 270. There used to be that one out past Lake St. Louis, but it's closed I think.
I haven't been to a OTP for years!
