Cottle & Gunn

At Cottle & Gunn, we're passionate about creating a unique shopping experience that combines the charm of vintage items with the excitement of DIY projects. Our small shop in historic downtown St. Marys, Georgia is a haven for those who love to create, restore, and decorate. We're proud to offer a curated selection of one-of-a-kind vintage items, housewares, home decor, furniture, and painting supplies that will inspire your next project.

Our Story

Our journey began with a shared passion for vintage items and a dream to create a local shop that supports local artists and makers. Our founder, Cottle, had a vision to bring new life to old things, and with the help of her business partner, Gunn, they brought Cottle & Gunn to life. Although Gunn has since retired, Cottle continues to carry on the legacy of supporting local talent and providing a unique shopping experience.
