Antique Shops

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

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.
