Alice Durham and Jay Redmond of Alice and Jay, LLC, are two self-proclaimed "clueless shopkeepers and fellow junk lovers" who adore traveling the backroads of America looking for hidden treasures. They thrive on taking discarded items and turning them into art of all kinds. Alice & Jay specialize in lamps and chandeliers but the madness never stops there! They turn old bathtubs into chaise lounges, heart pine flooring into tables, tin cans into flowers, and old car parts into benches. They never throw anything away! Alice and Jay have a store in three historic buildings in the small (very small) Southern Georgia town of Sasser. They travel to Marburger Farms in Round Top, Texas twice a year and the Lucketts Spring Market in May. They have had feature articles in Southwest Georgia Living and Wiregrass Living.
I just love this quote from Alice and Jay, which sums up their company and outlook on life: "We never, ever, take ourselves too seriously, for life is way too short! We believe in pink flamingos, mermaids, and hope to take a magic carpet ride with each and every one of you."

Alice & Jay offer unique lighting options made from architectural elements.
