Great Finds

So, I visited one of my favorite little shops the other day. Great Finds owned by the spunky Maggie Calhoun is located in the little historic village of Valatie, New York right on Main Street in a wonderful old mill house. This fabulous two-story shop is situated right across the street from the waterfalls near Route 203. Maggie started her endeavor up the road and quickly outgrew her space and she and her husband lovingly restored this quaint old mill house. Now not only does Great Finds sell unique household and garden decor, but Maggie has added a boutique filled with beautiful clothing and jewelry. (By the way, she also sells the best little caramels you've ever eaten in your life; perfect texture combined with delicious bits of salt and hints of butter, sweet yet you don't taste sugar, they are perfect. I'm totally addicted!) Among all the other treasures you will find some of my oil paintings. Farm animals and landscapes are scattered throughout this lovely two-story gem. Stop in and check out this place; it's worth the trip. Or feel free to call (518) 758-8999 and Maggie or the beautiful Mandy will be happy to assist.
