City Spotlight {Sweet Decor Shopping in Seattle }

Since I'm enjoying a little mini-vacay this weekend, I thought it was time Miss Maggie of Maggie Rose Interiors came back with her second installment of our Spotlight series focusing on the hidden shopping treasures of Seattle. This time around she's featuring one of my very favorite haunts. I'll let her get away with giving out these best kept secrets, just this once! 

It's Maggie, back with another one of my favorite spots to find vintage and antiques in Seattle. Today's pick is a Fremont staple, Deluxe Junk. Don't let the name fool you, they have some killer stuff.




I actually remember coming here as a kid (my parents are master thrifters) and oohing and ahhing over the pretty furniture. Guess I was destined to be a decorator, no?


I love to pop in here for lighting, accessories, and the occasional amazing piece of furniture. They always have great quirky items when you start digging (like the bin of matchbooks I found).



And I was swooning over the lavender chair. Here are the important deets for the next time you visit my fair city.

Place: Deluxe Junk

Location: 3518 Fremont Pl N

Hours: Mon, Fri-Sun 11:30 am - 5:30 pm

Best for: Accessories, killer furniture finds, weird but awesome conversation pieces.

Insider tip: Turnover on furniture is pretty high I've found, so don't dwell! Snap that piece up.



Due to the nature of the post, I can't guarantee that any of the items pictured are still available, but there is always something good. I'll be back to share one more spots, so stay tuned!

Ahhh I love this store and the Fremont District in general. Last time I was there a rack of vintage clothes were outside with a $1 sign on it.

I'm thinking it's time for a road trip. With a really really big truck.

Though I grew up in the Seattle area, I just visited Deluxe Junk for the first time last year. It is now one of my Seattle staples each time I visit. It is one of those stores that you can tell is amazing just from the outside. And...bonus!...Pie is a tasty little eatery just around the corner.
