Anyone who knows me, knows that I love shopping. From antiques to art, if you see me on the weekend or a weekday, I am on a hunt for next find. So many people ask where I source for my favorite items and I always say in my backyard. It is one of my favorite things about living in Walterboro. From antique shops to the farmer’s market, there is always a special find to add to my art or decor collection. Check out some of my favorite places to shop below:

Colleton Museum & Farmers Market
The Colleton Museum & Farmers Market aims to preserve and promote the historical, natural, cultural, and agricultural heritage of Colleton County through the care and conservation of collections, research, interpretation, exhibitions and educational programs. I love picking up Gullah Art, southern books, gourmet food items and hostess gifts from the Colleton Museum & Farmers Market. My family usually stops by the Farmers Market every Saturday for fresh local veggies and a few sweets on the go.

Michiel is a Black Southern Belle living a lowcountry life. I love all things fashion, home decor and southern! When I am not running around doing fun stuff for Black Southern Belle, I live in antique stores and have a minor obsession with historic homes :)
