Attics are often thought of as places where great treasures hide.  High above the Lopez Thrift Shop is such a place.  Over the years the Lopez community has donated a wide array of useful items that find new homes every week.  Clothing, household goods, children’s items, and so much more have come to be the staples of the shop.

For many years now, the Thrift Shop has held a Christmas sale which features some of the more unique, new and special items that are collected over the year. This year, there has been a large number of items that seemed to warrant an even more special sale. Thus, The Lopez Thrift Shop Attic Treasures Sale was conceived…. fine art, jewelry, antiques, collectibles, Stuben crystal, Dualit toaster, Hummel and Nao figurines, Dolce Gabbana sun glasses, handmade dolls, oriental ceramics, and so much more will be featured at the sale.

There will be something for all tastes and budgets.
