Antique Shops
 
Does anyone on the forum know any places with antique shops? Also, any quaint gift/craft shops?

Sorry, but I couldn't get to that link. Are you able to get it?

cigalechanta Jul 26th, 2004 09:47 PM

you are right, the url doesn't work. I cut and pasted it for you. But go where I found it. I googled(www.google.com_
and typed in antique shop forums.

THANKS cigalechanta, but I was just looking for places to visit. I'm not a dealer:)

You don't specify which area of the country you're interested in ?

I've never researched it, but I've heard about the "Antiques Trail" in Georgia- 200 (?) antique stores in a 200-mile loop.

A quick google.com search turned up the following website:

Anoka, Minnesota has several neat shops. So does Stillwater, Minnesota. Both towns are not far from the Twin Cities metro area.

Central Pennsylvania has an "antique" shop trail all along route 15 that runs North to South thru the state.

I have no idea what state/part of the country you are interested in, but in the PNW there is Snohomish, WA which calls itself the Antique Capital of the Northwest. It is a cute little town and actually quite fun. We used to live there and really miss it.

Orange, California has a quaint downtown area known as Old Town or "the circle" to locals with tons of antique shops. It is very quaint and is used frequently in movies and commercials. Here is a website http://www.oldtowneorange.net/
It's in Southern California, very close to Disneyland.
