Firefly Vintage & Goods - Ely, MN

The Unmarked Police Car of antique stores . . . 

If you find yourself walking along Sheridan St, between the candy store and the theater, you'll see a sign for real estate agencies, with all kinds of old stuff in the windows.  Odd.  If you then happen to walk out into the street to get some pictures of the candy store and theater, you'll notice a sign way up high, without a business name, too small for the real estate it's hung to, saying ANTIQUES.  On furthur inspection, it's actually an antique store with a real estate agencies in the back  

  

A bit of searching the interwebs to even find out the name of the place:  Firefly Vintage & Goods.  Kind of a strange name.  Whatever.  Looks like they've recently opened the antique portion, and will soon have signage with said stilted name

Wandering in, I found a well-appointed neat and tidy antique store with a wide selection.  Especially standing out were collections of smalls . . . my favorite being the swizzle sticks.  Looking back at the pictures, there's a number of things I'm kicking myself for not picking up.  First and foremost the set of water kettle tea bag plates.  Oh well  

Yeah, check the place out if you're in town.  Definitely worth a stop
