I adore this place. In front of the shop are original pieces of art. Through metal working and upcycling pieces of, well, junk, marvelous wonders are created. There’s a gate made of box springs. Beautiful flowers made out of hubcaps. A water fountain created with a trumpet. Even though much of it may be impractical for many of our homes, it’s fun to marvel at the amazing works of art. Inside is a smallish room with the checkout counter and standard gift shop items. There’s jewelry made by local crafters, postcards and such, scarves and hats, shells galore, and old concert posters(I bought a poster of a Beatles concert in Indianapolis for $ 7). Most people probably think the store ends here, but no. Push a door in the back of the room and you enter a massive space with wandering rooms that feel like an attic stuffed with antiques and, well, junk. There are boxes of old postcards, most of which were addressed and mailed! I could spend hours reading the notes and looking at the postmarks. There’s stacks of window shutters and window panes. Boxes of old license plates. Crates of old milk jugs. Walls of bottle openers and door knockers. The crafting and decorating possibilities are endless. It’s probably best that I don’t live in the area. I’d spend far too much time here. Check it out. Seriously. You could walk through every day for a year and not come close to seeing everything.

Past the front yard are more and more rooms of assorted«stuff», that just make you smile. Great fun to poke around and actually got some really pretty necklaces to take home as presents.

This place is an eye stopper and causes much rubbernecking on the way out to the beach. Soooo I did what any serious and responsible Unilocaler would do. I stopped to check it out. The place has a lot of really unique hand made tacky and quirky things that you would never put in your yard, but some people might. Everything aside from perhaps the seashells are way way way overpriced. If you poke your head inside and walk around the one room, there’s little trinkets and such but nothing that screams unique. It’s a neat stop and don’t get me wrong, I highly recommend stopping… you never know what you might find that just screams BUYME. TAKEMEHOME! It’s worth taking a few pictures of at any case.

One of those one of a kind shops. We found some nice reasonably priced souvenirs to take on the plane. Wish there was a shop like this near home, the larger things he has are custom, hand made and one of a kind yard and interior decorations. Worth a stop!!!

This is Really Most Artistic place. Ralph douglas jones should be man of connoisseur. he must be similar to Leonard Da Vinci. the entire gallery has real creativity, I love anything with Fish and its related Items. This has much more in depth of Sea related items which we cannot find or get anywhere. I am really amazed with the way they have designed. The lady who was helping or working for the store is highly Professional, ethical and honesty. She really cares for customers and give an real tour of the items, on how we discuss with her in a positive way. This is an Amazing place to visit.

Oh this place is great, it’s on your way out of Tybee Island. We picked up a few old hubcaps. I felt like I was in an episode of American Pickers. it has the most wild and obscure artsy things
