New Hampshire Antique Shopping Adventures : VLOG
It took me like a month to edit all my footage from PA, where this one only took a week! How is that for improvement?!
I don't feel like this video gets off to the fastest start, nor were the shops as amazing as the ones from PA, but hopefully it's still enjoyable. I know I enjoyed myself!
I think I'll be doing a little haul from this trip (which will be 80% buttons), and maybe a separate haul of what I bought at Keepsake quilting - because as I said, I got a lot! And I have rough plans for most of it.

Can confirm, as an aussie, that the taxidermy job on that ant at 26:07 is great. Be afraid, be very afraid.
Sooooo envious! I have Ceoliac disease as well and its almost impossible to find any good baked goodies in Australia
Thanks for bringing us along on the trip!
I want to know about the new lip shade--who makes it? What is the name of the color? It really compliments your skin tone. I hope you'll wear it often.
It is cherry bomb from Wet n Wild!
What was that Gluten Free bakery called/located?
At 11:14, the name and address are visible on the box Angela's holding
Can we see a haul video?
Yes!
If you ever find yourself in Wisconsin for some reason, La Crosse has an amazing antique center downtown where I buy a lot of my clothes because it's all really reasonably priced and beautiful
It seems like the midwest rules in terms of vintage clothing. All the vintage shops I follow on instagram are out there - I'm jelous!!!
Tell us about the new lipstick.
I loved this, and I also really enjoyed your banter with your mother. I wish I had someone to take me on antiquing trips like that! :)
Oh my goodness I love Laconia, it's a beautiful area, I live about an hour away from there. I would say most rural antique shops in NH will have a lot of old books and furniture. I think the stuff you're looking for would be in the "cities" (they're very old and very small, but are still ctites by definition) like Manchester, Portsmouth, Concord, and Keene, so if you're ever in New Hampshire again, check those out. Also you don't have to worry about getting murdered by people in NH, just getting lost and starving to death in the acres and acres and acres of protected forests, though there were those Mont Vernon killings, happened about 20 minutes from me about 10 or so years ago, really horrific, only look it up if you have a strong stomach.
It is really really pretty! My mom wants to move to Meredith, lol. I think PA actually had more furniture, because of the amish population. And I don't even remember that many books. I think a lot of the stuff was just more modern and masculine than we lean, maybe? Our favorite shops were in Manchester and Concord so that is a very accurate assessment! I'm sad I crossed Portsmouth off our list.
Nice hall! Now I know how New Hampshire looks like. And that forest looked scary! Glad you got buttons. Ooh, those hats were really cute. And the dress outfits were all cute !
I liked all your outfits. I wish we could have seen more inside, but i guess if it wasn't that exciting... Meh.
Definitely not as inspiring of a filming location as PA shops, at least for me!
Don't worry, you won't get murdered in the backwoods of NH, unless you're trespassing, in which case I can't help you. It was funny to see where you went and where you skipped entirely. I can see why the general NH antique market would be less your thing. Honestly, much of what I think of is books and 17th-19th-century farm stuff. And buttons, you're right that there is a weird confluence of buttons. Portsmouth would have had more stuff to your taste, probably, but it is also very expensive in many cases.
I think PA has it beat when it comes to farming equipment! they just have a wider variety off stuff, too. That's interesting to hear, Portsmouth was on my first list, but I think it was too far from our hotel (there were only one or two well rated stores maybe + the drive made me slash it, iirc). I didn't try to skip anything intentionally, I just go off of reviews!
