Clinton News Record, 2014-07-09, Page 13Wednesday, July 9, 2014 • News Record 13 Hip, new antique furniture store comes to Clinton Tara Ostner The Clinton News Record Side Street Antiques Buy & Sell is the new word on the street in Clinton. Located at 12 Isaac Street, this hip, new store features antique and used furniture, collectibles, lighting and pictures and is an ideal spot for anyone who is interested in reasonably priced vintage home decor. The store is owned and oper- ated by Nina Turner from Clinton and Rob Bell from Londesborough. Turner, who purchases her items through private buy- ing, has been in the antique business for 10 years. She is also the owner of ReLook Nook and Treasures Past & Present in Clinton. ReLook Nook, which opened three years ago, is a consignment shop that sells high-end clothing, shoes, bags, jewelry and small pieces of furniture and attracts customers from Goderich, Exeter, Stratford, Wingham, Sarnia, Cam- bridge and Hamilton. As Turner explains, ReLook Nook is an eclectic store great for "one-stop shop- ping." Treasures Past & Pre- sent opened seven years ago and sells antiques, collectibles and furniture. Also, in the same building as ReLook Nook, Turner offers dry cleaning services for Bluewater Cleaners in Goderich and is currently Clinton's Sears catalogue agent. Like Turner, Bell has also been in the antique business for some time. He has been collecting for over 10 years and buying and selling items for over 5 years. Over the years, Bell has done most of his purchasing at flea mar- kets in the Goderich and Owen Sound areas and has a special interest in collectables. Now that Turner and Bell have opened Side Street Antiques, Turner is excited to be able to offer large pieces of antique furniture and hopes to attract the same kind of audience that ReLook Nook and Treasures Past & Present attract. As Turner says, she is simply "branching out" by opening Side Street Antiques. The store's summer hours are Tues., - Sat., 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and by appointment and it can also be found on Facebook. Stock is rotated frequently at the store so it is recommended that interested customers check back regularly.
