The Activity Column Catherine Dugan’s guide to getting out there... this week, go antiquing! Forget all of those articles from 2019 that assert that nobody wants your old stuff. Antiques are back in style. Being stuck at home for many months, an interest in eco-friendly decorating, or an interruption in the supply chain has awakened a new respect for old things. Antiques — generally considered to be over 100 years old — and other vintage goods are having a moment. “Granny chic” is in. Our improved cooking skills deserve fancy china plates. Our multiplying houseplants look prettier in repurposed teapots. Workfrom-home taught us the value of the sturdy drop-leaf kitchen tables that served America’s small kitchens in the 1930s. We’re buying, and we don’t feel guilty, because we’re upcycling. Antiques also offer sentiment. An item may have value because it reminds you of a person you love — a glass jar of buttons calls to you because you now understand your grandma saving every button. Travel is still dicey, so you hang a picture of celebrities on the Amalfi coast. An old softball glove is a nod to your younger self. They’re conversation starters, dreams, or tributes. Used items are more affordable than new ones, so you can take part in a trend without breaking the bank. As the mid-century modern craze fades into a fascination with 1980s excess, add black lacquer, blond wood, or lucite and pay homage to the age of excess without the bank account of Alexis Carrington Colby (Ask your mother. Or grandmother.) Antique shopping also offers the thrill of a treasure hunt. It would be great to find a lost piece of fine art or other treasure, but it’s fun just to find the specific item you’re seeking. Cape May’s antique markets are reopening and some eager shoppers don’t even make it into town before they stop at the Cape May Antique Center, 1228 Route 109. With 70 vendors selling a wide variety of nautical items, tarot cards, Victorian-era furniture, and large outdoor items, this is a great place to look. Visit Antiques Emporia on West Perry Street for touches of whimsy, after you get your practical goods at Swain’s. Victorious features antique jewelry. The Antique Doorknob at 600 Park Boulevard does indeed have knobs of all kinds, but also stained-glass panels, chairs and small couches. West End Garage mixes antiques with crafts and modern pieces. Garage sales remain the best places for deep discounts — sellers are eager to clean out their homes. Also visit summer craft shows like the Crafts and Collectibles show at the Emlen Physick Estate on June 26 from 10 am to 4 pm.
