Do you like to leisurely prowl through booth after booth in search of collectibles, antiques, unique crafts and more? Us too! And we’ve discovered a wonderful way to spend a day exploring in nearby Summerdale. Join us for a visit to Red Beard’s Treasure Chest and Silver Lining Market.
Red Beard's Treasure Chest
Start your day at Red Beard's Treasure Chest, located at 105 Highway 59. Pace yourself to spend time at each booth looking, reminiscing and picking the perfect item (or ten) to bring home. At one turn find yourself considering rows of beer steins and vintage bar memorabilia. Do you need a few more for your collection?
Move on to the next booths and step back into your childhood with a large toy booth, comics booth and even a vintage electronics section full of classic vinyl records. From there, it is on to a booth filled with vintage Pyrex dishes. Remember all the wonderful (or maybe not so wonderful) casseroles your mom served up in the 70s and 80s?
The adventure continues with whimsical finds like a smiling pink pig cookie jar or works from local talented artists. Maybe take home a cast iron sea turtle or frog. Red Beards has a section for every taste! Peruse through the large vintage kitchen section, western, military, glassware and collectible smalls. Each area has treasures that easily fit in your suitcase or trunk. You'll see that you really can find treasures under this roof and the prices are less than you’d expect. Just be prepared to spend an hour or two because you won’t want to rush this adventure.
Silver Lining Market
After a break for lunch or a snack, make the short drive to Silver Lining Market. Shoppers familiar with Summerdale will know the Rama Imports location. The two businesses share the building and shoppers can explore both under one roof.
Looking for glassware in blue, green, red or pink? There are spacious booths filled with all you could need to round out your collection. We’re thinking of all the fun floral or fruit arrangements we can add to these colorful bowls and vases!
Don’t neglect your yard on this shopping trip. Check out the cool metal art pieces and think of all the ways you can add a pop of color to your fence, your driveway, your flowerbed. The only thing missing is a tropical drink!
The floor space at Silver Lining is generous, making the booths easy to explore. The entire place is clean and well-lit. Trust us; you’ll want to stay for hours on this shopping mission.
An easy drive from the beaches in Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, Red Beards Treasure Chest and Silver Lining Market offer a wonderful rainy day activity during your family vacation. But with collectibles, antiques and unique finds like these, why wait for a shower? We say head there today and be sure to let us know what must-haves you find.
