April 13th, 2011 Hi everyone! Hope you’ve been enjoying the virtual antique store tour! Tired yet?? Stop #3 The Consignment Galleries 363 Highland Ave. Somerville, MA www.theconsignmentgalleries.com The Consignment Galleries was third on our list, and it definitely was the biggest store on our trip.

April 11th, 2011 On Saturday, three of my home decor loving girlfriends (Shout out to Jo, Cooper and Jackie!!) and I took advantage of the GORGEOUS weather, and went on a little “antique store hop”.
