Treasure Hunt: Nana's Attic

The Friday Patch Passport shows you where you can find trinkets in your town. Get out and explore the unique local shops and all they have to offer.

While Woonsocket has an abundance of rummage sales and collectible shops, each filled with its own unique treasures, for the antiquer that appreciates the hunt and the rush of finding a true bargain, is a must-see.

As the name implies, the store is a paradise for the curious with trinkets and oddities covering nearly every square inch of spare space. Cranberry glassware stands atop an antique shelf stacked with books, statues, and various trinkets. A beautiful oak bench is buried beneath a pile of pillows, fabric, and other odds and ends. 

Even from the outside, the store is inviting, with the appearance of a cozy country shop. Jean, the owner, is equally warm and friendly and willing to help her guests in their search for hidden treasure.

But what truly makes this store stand out is the quality antique furniture that can be purchased for a steal. These items may be secondhand and seem at first, forgotten, but a little digging will reveal unique, classic pieces in perfect condition for as little as $100.

For a fun adventure in local shopping, be sure to put Nana's Attic on your list.
