Fave Find: Bisque Wedding Cake Toppers
Wow, hard to believe I still have stuff to write about from my trip to South Carolina. But I do… one last entry. After we left the Summerville Antique Gallery, we headed over to this crazy hot dog place called Perfectly Franks that was featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. This was enough to make me completely sold! The hot dogs at this place were crazy. Just look for yourself.
I don’t know why none of us ordered something super crazy. I just got a Chicago style dog. In retrospect, I should have tried something more adventurous. Still, it was a…
After our hot dogs, we headed over to an antique store next door. There were some cool things to look at.
There were four of these hippie hangers but I liked this guy the best.
I thought this cool print by Hatch Show Print might be valuable but it was priced correctly.
I also loved these little Frances invites, but when am I ever going to use something like that?

Ok, so I’ll bet you’re wondering what the hell the awesome find was here, right? Well, I noticed these adorable bisque cake toppers on a shelf, but they were all priced separately even though it was clearly a set.
When I brought them up, I questioned the price but the guy didn’t seem willing to bargain, and the price of each was $15. I wasn’t willing to pay $45 for all of them, so I left because I figured I could find them online.
We started driving to our next destination and I started looking these guys up on eBay, and they actually seemed to sell for more than that on there, so I felt bummed that I had missed out on something I really liked at a good price. So I did what any brave person would do–I made my dad drive back there, and I sent my mom in with some cash to haggle for me. I told her I was willing to pay $30 for all three and she came out with them in her hands! Yeah mom!
In celebration, here is a picture of me and my mom sitting on a moon in the Moon Pie shop in downtown Charleston.
Moon Pies are disgusting, by the way. But that backdrop is dope!

Tell me where to go!
Hi folks! Here’s my attempt at crowdsourcing! I’m going to the Charleston, SC area for five days starting this Saturday and would love to hear any recommendations for places to hit up. My parents are renting a house down there for February and March, and I’m going to spend a few days with them in the warmer weather. Since we love treasure hunting we need your help! I’m already planning on going here because my parents checked it out and said it was cray:
But I need more good recommendations!
Also good would be recommendations for the best SC TREATS. And anything else fun to do! Thanks!
