The Antique Shop (Peppers Creek Antiques at Hunter Valley Gardens)

I pretty much fell in love with this store minutes after walking in. While it says it is an antique store - its a lovely mix of old and new. They also pack a lot in - from clothes and handbags to kitchen items, jewellery and so so so much more! Of course it is an antique store so you do expect to see some pricy items, but as I walked around I was delighted to find that not everything came with a huge price tag :-) They had a great range of over night and hand bags, hats, wallets, cute retro salt and pepper shakers, jewellery, clocks and trinkets, table ware and some of the cutest multi coloured animals I have ever seen. The lady there was not only super helpful she was also very knowledgeable. I recently inherited a necklace from a family member and she was able to tell me what material it was and even cleaned it for me free of charge. Ended up buying a lovely antique cross necklace that is absolutely gorgeous! :-)
