Chattanooga Discoveries Spree/ Part2

As promised here’s another glimpse of what downtown Chattanooga has to offer in shopping for livable spaces. It’s always fun to crash a place that has a little touch of everything…and that’s what the GALLERIES at SOUTHSIDE have to offer. It’s arranged in typical antique mall style but is truly a fabulous mix of old and new. And make sure you stop close to lunch time as adjacent to the displays you’ll find yourself wandering into a charming little cafe. Great place to stop for southern style “sweet” tea and escape the heat before heading out the door again. They even offer refills for the road in to-go cups…..now that’s southern hospitality! My pics show many of the vignettes with very handsome displays to view as you saunter through the mallway. You’ll find sophistication to whimscal all under one roof. My favorite find here was hard to miss in the entry area facing the street: Lola’s Fine Gifts. She carrys “by-the yard” floor runners in a multitude of colors and patterns. Couldn’t help but think of a country cottage in bright light colors when I saw her display.

More summer shopping spots to recommend still coming in future post. Where have “you all ” been shopping this summer?
