An Oddly Amazing Shop: Oddly Amazing Antiques

I have always adored antique shops, but many of them seem to be more 'fashionable' these days rather than an eclectic collection of interesting odds and ins. In the end, I really enjoy any antique shop from the ones pristinely organized to the ones that feel like mazes of items. Oddly Amazing Antiques is something that feels a bit different from both-- probably because along with antiques, this store sells 'oddities' as well as generally weird items. I would say it is the more maze-like shop, though-- with that magical feeling that you might find anything within its walls.

This shop is still fairly new to my knowledge. It sprung up on my radar nearly two years ago and I was immediately enraptured with the place. When it was at it's first location, I sometimes went three times a week to poke around and ask about the antique composition dolls I collected. The staff was always incredibly friendly and always seemed to have interesting stories about the items they had in the shop. And, of course, I always had a fun time spotting new things that had been moved around in the store. 

Currently, Oddly Amazing Antiques is located near Riverside Drive at 11 Jefferson St. With a shop twice the size of the first, this location allows for even more interesting things to be stored to be found by the eager antiquer or just any person interested by cool things. Just yesterday I looked over a wall of vintage cameras, browsed shell bowls full of crystals, and debated on buys a jawbone. Antique toys are also sprinkled through the store with some more modern figures. Really, if you can imagine it, Oddly Amazing Antiques probably has it!

All in all, if you're looking for a new place to explore or you're wanting some interesting antiques, this is my top suggestion. You really never know what you might find.
