Aguirre’s Imports

Abq, local, N.M.
Shop and Staff
This place is so small you can barely see it driving down the road. And yet that is what I love about it. It is a very small operation, and it needs to be talked about. The location is right next to a gas station, and you literally can only see it heading south on 4^th street. It is a remodeled house made into a business. As I walked to the front of the shop I was looking around outside for about five minutes before Gabriel came out, and greeted me. I was looking for something very particular. A metal flower with a dragonfly. I saw a A few other flowers, but they were not the design I was looking for. I asked Gabriel if he had any other metal flowers? He said «I do. Come inside I’ll show you.»
Experience
As I walked inside the shop it had a very old house feeling to it being it was once a house. It still had the fireplace, one bathroom, two bedrooms, and the kitchen. Possibly one more bedroom near the front door. As I looked for the metal flower I found exactly what I was looking for. I was very surprised to find what I’ve been looking for all summer long. I also noticed a small metal dragonfly made out of an old spark plug. Looking back on it I should’ve bought that as well. I had a small chat with Gabriel, and he was very nice. I look forward to buying more items from this shop in the future.
