When Nik and I were searching for wood to make our Christmas shelves, we ended up finding Glasgow Architectural Salvage when looking for a wood recycling place in the west end. As soon as we walked inside the massive warehouse I was excited! There was SO much cool stuff everywhere and I was convinced we'd find something good.
This place has all manner of awesome stuff ranging from sinks and doors to fireplaces and chimney pots, even keyhole covers and door handles.
On my second visit there I even managed to find some crockery which at 25p were too good to pass up!
They also have quite a collection of bottles dotted around...
And radiators...
Even a massive clock face!
So, other than the wood (which were bible shelves from the backs of pews) for our DIY project, I also came home with some fab old bottles (one of which says GLASGOW) and 3 gorgeous grey patterned bowls which I plan to use for serving Christmas dinner sides.

This place looks awesome! i remember stumbling across a place very similar to this in St Cyrus (near Aberdeen) and it was an absolute treasure trove. Back then I didn't have a house, but I'm dying to go back and could happily rummage for hours! x
What a cool place!
