The City of Golden with their many partners will be presenting “Candlelight Nights 2020.” They plan to make Golden, Colorado the place to visit this holiday season. This month-long event starts Friday, December 6th. Elves will be working hard to make downtown a fun and festive place to be every day and night. The lights will go up early and stay on later. Decorative banners with holiday messages will festoon the street poles. Glistening ice sculptures will be placed around downtown for the month of December. Strolling Saturdays on the Avenue will feature holiday characters mingling with downtown visitors. There may even be an appearance by everyone’s favorite jolly man in a red suit. There will be a Holiday Story Stroll — a treasure hunt of sorts taking you on a journey celebrating multicultural holiday traditions from around the world. No less involved in the holiday spirit of Golden is Rockin’ Horse Antiques and Vintage Treasures. Located at 1106 Washington Avenue, they are a mere stone’s throw from the famous “Welcome to Golden” sign.
Rockin’ Horse Antiques has been around a long time. The shop is located on the main street of Golden, Colorado. It is filled with hard-to-find antiques and collectibles reminiscent of Mom’s old house. This December they will have a Special In-Store Holiday Market Shop and select dealers are offering Holiday Sales through Dec 31st.
With several dealers and lots of merchandise to choose from, you’re sure to spend hours exploring the historic treasures at this fine antique establishment. Find antique furniture, Colorado-inspired paintings, Coors memorabilia (ask for Heather) and much more. Speaking of Heather, Heather Eckels and Debbie Sherwood speak for the store and encourage you to do your holiday shopping here. They follow the safety guidelines of this Covid-era so be sure to wear your mask. Hand sanitizer is available everywhere and you can keep your distance as the store is quite large.

Shopper Pam points out, “You’ll love this store. There is such variety here, you’ll be sure to find something. Today I was super excited to find 6 of the most beautiful blue rose glass tumblers to go with my set of 6 antique French blue dinner plates that I found a year ago. Yayyyy! I’ve been searching for glasses just like this for a long time. Happy dancing!! I love the great service and the sweet smiling ladies who work here and run this store. They are very knowledgeable, helpful and so, so kind! Thank you for your help and those sweet kind smiles!! It makes all the difference when shopping.”
