The store name and items displayed in front caught my attention on the way home to Fort Walton Beach after a doctors appt. There was an eclectic mix of items and the owner was very helpful and friendly. Ill definitely stop by here when Im in town.The front of the store has a great selection of shells, beach-themed decor items, jewelry, and air plants. There were also some very interesting plants that the owner propagates herself. The air plants and some decor items were higher than usual, but there were also lots of bargains. I found a night blooming cactus plant that Ive wanted for years, but never seen for sale in a nursery. There were also a few interesting begoniasThe size is deceiving from the road, so I didnt expect the large back room. There was a great mix of vintage and antique pieces, with a scattering of more recent items. I could have spent quite a bit if not for my pesky budget this trip. Im so glad I checked it out and Im excited to see what is there next time.
One of my favorite activities is shopping for vintage items to decorative my house. Weve gone to the Rusty Relic several times now and always find interesting things. It is easy to get mesmerized by all the beautiful shells and air plants in the front of the store but be sure to keep looking because there is much more inside. Recently, my husband wandered around and found a metal spiral votive candle holder on the wall. We took it home and painted it with hammered metal spray paint, then we found some inexpensive glass cups and colored sand at Hobby Lobby. We added the sand, some shells and remote controlled candles.Now we have some new art above our fireplace for a reasonable price. And for an extra bonus, the lady who runs the store is always so nice and welcoming.
This is a one of a kind place. Very neat little store with things you dont see every day. Got an air plant & owner was polite and helped with questions. Will go again...
This is my favorite place to find that little something that helps me personalize my spaces. Staff is great. Love the flow. Always helpful
My wife and I have been going to Rusty Relic for 3 years now. We always find something there. I would recommend this place to everybody.
This is one of our most favorite places to check out. We go as much as we can to always find great deals and a variety of items. They are all very very friendly and welcome us every time we get to go we feel like family...
I Absolutely Love Love This Place!
Definitely nice place to shop, again beware of furniture that says antique. Always check your wood and damages. Very nice place.
Interesting shop with a nice variety. Its an enjoyable experience to walk through and see the assortment of items. Fair prices too.
Jason is the most honest man. Went in looking for some hard furniture and he was so helpful. Looking for Amish furniture, dont miss or overlook this place.
Such great things at this store!
Love this place
Always find something new and creative, love the owner, very reasonable/fair prices. Definately one of my favorites in the area! Its just fun! And isnt that why we go exploring antique/vintage stores?
Always a fun place to find hidden treasures
Kind of expensive but willing to talk, very friendly helpful staff .lots of beach theme things .
My king of place
The iwner of the store told me how she got started and is such an amazing and talented lady in the way she has set her shop up. I could stay there for hours as there is so much to look at
Coolest store ever!! Super reasonable prices and friendly service. Found lots of unique home decor !!
Cool place with tons of unique things to look at! Excellent prices and selection. Staff is helpful and friendly. Scored an awesome antique lamp for $7.50! Definitely worth a look.
This place had a great variety of things. It was neat to look around and ended up buying some local photography and a coconut turtle.
I love this place. Theres a ton of things crammed in so many places. The prices are good and these is always a vendor having a sale. If youre into treasure hunting this is a place to go.
Just Awesome I!
It is very rusty in here. Tetnis shot is recommended before entering. I found the perfect shovel for my living room from the 1800s and it only cost me $5.00 and a small case of lockjaw. Stop by for a visit and a cup of coffee.
Such a cute and unique store! I could literally spend all day in this shop and still not see enough! The owner is fantastic and has amazing taste. I can not recommend Rusty Relics enough! If you havent been, youre missing out!! One of my top favorite antique stores!
Referring to first review by Mr Anderson, that is not The Rusty Relic, that is Barry;s backdoor across the street!!! The Rusty Relic is a huge vintage shop wall to wall to ceiling full of treasures, great prices and wonderful changing selection. You find something different every tine you go!!! It is a combination of vendors & consignment and EVERYTHING IS PRICED!!!! :) They always have snacks in the kitchen and friendly service.
Great finds!!! So much fun and wonderful things to look at!!! Wish I would have found it around the holidays!!
Good products at a fair price.
Great sea shell 🐚 collection.

Fun little antique store!
Nice place, many items, mostly reasonably priced, easy parking and access.
Nice place but its hot in the large back room.
Found some beautiful and unique items. Will be visiting this store more often
Best antique/Thrift store around😁
Its an antique store run by what seems to be just one guy. Be prepared to haggle, as he will set a price on the spot. Its not the usual setup with vendors renting booths and putting price tags on everything.
So many cool, cute things to find here!
Store smells terrible upon walking in. Dogs were barking very loud. I bought and ironstone platter, was not offered a bag or wrapping. Would not recommend.
A lot of choices and very affordable on any budget. Will go again
Great little shop with a big variety and fair prices!!
Gobs and gobs of antiques and collectibles....affordable collectibles!
