Have purchased many items from this Salvage Haven!!! Always go there on my travels to Sarasota.Have always purchased as cash and carry. In early May of this year, I bought a twelve hole sugar mold. As I was planning to fly home, I paid for the mold and for shipping, rather than carrying it home. Today is July 22 and I still have not received it. Have made numerous calls to them. There’s always an excuse for my not having received it and promises of calling me back with a tracking number. Never calls me back. Today was my sixth call. He promised to follow up “tomorrow” and call me. I paid for the item (not inexpensive) AND FOR POSTAGE!! Will NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AGAIN. BEWARE! If you can’t carry it out the door , DO NOT BUY IT. Worst case of cheating I have ever experienced!!

Like a treasure chest of unique items from all over the world. Staff is super friendly and helpful as well. Circus items, large lighted letters and signs. So much stuff and well organized. I could come here every weekend and always see new and fun items. ***One of the greatest treasures is Jesse White, the owner! Say hello when you are there. He is a wealth of knowledge!***

Architectural Salvage is a hidden paradise of quirk and meaning. This store has been my Disneyland since I was in high school, 20 years ago. If you feel stale, and listless, go! If you feel curious and open, go! The entire grounds are a feast for the eyes. Make a word in the sign letter garden. Touch a door from who knows where. Dig through piles of doorknobs, knick knacks and you name it’s. Whether you go there for inspiration, to heal your eyes and brain from technological injuries we sustain on daily basis or to fulfill a crafting desire you just can’t quite put your finger on, this is the shop of delights for you. Why “meaning?” Well, perhaps you need to go to find out!! * I have added photos of my art supply dresser which received a quirky update. Good ole’ black chalk paint and mismatched gold drawer pulls from A.S. because why not. Also love my new garden shutters for my journal area. They look so cool in the room in the morning illuminated by just candlelight.
