lamps (some are made from old kerosene lamps), linens, quilts, insulators, furniture (including an iron bed and dining room set), old trunks, baskets, crocks and more. The linens include crocheted pillowcases and embroidered linens.
The kitchen section is packed full of utensils, dishes, bowls, dish towels, old canning jars, a pie safe, and glassware. A lot of these items suit people who collect, but some will go to people who use them every day. Old canning jars are a wonderful addition to any kitchen counter both for their good looks and to hold dried beans, pasta, coffee beans, or whatever.
The colorful insulators and some old jars and bottles are displayed beautifully in front of a window which is stunning when backlit by the sun, especially since some of the insulators are a deep purple.
Mrs. Pullen and Kathy Pullen (Kathy is Clyde Pullen’s sister) are the two employees of the shop, keeping it open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Kathy lives in Old Hollow, so she has a very short ride (or walk) to get to work. She was employed at the Aileen plant in Flint Hill for 18 years but said she really enjoys working at Attic Treasures, working on setting up displays and talking to the people who come in. The customers have been about half local and half out-oftowners, she said.
Betty Pullen worked for seven years in retail for the Faith Mountain Company, at the shop on Main Street
