The kitchen is full of pottery and kitchen collectibles, displayed on antiques that are for sale. Displays change as does the goods, here we have featured a beautiful piece of Campbell Pottery.
|
Jackie shows off one of her many favorite artists; Steve VanDeVelde brings his welding sculptures, which are whimsical and magical. Two of my favorite themes in the shop!

 |
Local water color art by Susan Spanbauer is a delight, as the Tiffany Lamp that shows them off.
|
We have pottery! Here we feature local pottery as well as Campbell pottery. You can see some of the HOBO bags as well that we carry that are very competitively priced!

This is a wide angle of the middle room, and the variety here is awesome, if I do say so myself. I just found this wonderful hand painted folk art closet (the green one). It is lined with cedar, just waiting for precious winter coats to be stored at your camp.
|
More stuff! Yes, it is eclectic. You can see here the infinity sculpture that Steve put together using an old stand up ashtray! Yes, I did say he was whimsical! Think out of the box when you enter Great Lakes Trading. I don't think you will be disappointed.

This is the other side of the kitchen. More antiques, pottery, birdhouses, stained glass, tiles, vintage lamps......
|
Other side of the front room, local jewelry, copper (not polished) and copper art from the Copper Craftsman is featured. Welded and burnished, there are no two alike.
|

 |
Here is the original fireplace, and the view you see when you walk in the door. Cards, featuring the humor of Erica Uller and others. In the center of the middle table you can see one of Steve's whimsically welded owls, and some of Marsha LaTulip's hand built pottery.
|
Another view of the middle room facing west you can see the big pottery display case, and in the foreground a beautiful antique trunk with a complete shelving unit inside. There are so many items if you have questions, please write and let me know.
