Relics Home, located in downtown Abilene, is a store that offers everything from picture frames and rugs to furniture and jewelry. This may seem pretty standard but what the products are made of will probably surprise you!
The idea behind Relics is to offer Fair Trade and socially conscious items. This means that the people who made the goods were paid a fair working wage and that the items were made from sustainable resources.
Relics offers tables made from reclaimed pine, chandeliers from French wine barrels and picture frames made from the buttons of old pay phone, among other things. So, if you are looking for a place to find unique gifts and home decor which also benefits the environment and people around the world...Relics is the place to go!
