VINTAGE AND ANTIQUES The Quad Cities is full of vintage
Doodads
treasures and classic antiques just waiting to be discovered. Begin in Rock Island at Skeleton Key Art and Antiques , housed in a historic building that once served as a funeral home where every room feels like a treasure hunt. From there, head to Antique Archaeology in LeClaire, made famous by the History Channel’s American Pickers , and explore rare finds that give a glimpse into the past. In downtown Davenport, stop by Doodads for that old-school charm and a wide collection of antiques and collectibles. If you’re searching for clothing with character and history, explore Trash Can Annie and Envied Vintage Clothing for nostalgic, timeless pieces. Those drawn to mid-century charm will want to visit Fred & Ethel’s , a must-stop for retro décor and collectibles that bring a touch of the 1950s and ‘60s into the modern day. At Odd Betties in Aledo, you’ll find oddities and unexpected finds, before browsing two floors of an eclectic collection at Sales from the Krypt in New Windsor.
SOUTHPARK & NORTHPARK MALL If you’re looking to support local while shopping your everyday favorites, explore the SouthPark and NorthPark Malls . Alongside national retailers, both malls feature small and locally owned businesses that add to the shopping experience. At NorthPark Mall, browse Elm Street Apothecary
for natural self-care essentials, or stop by Boba Tea House to grab a drink and sip while you shop around. At SouthPark Mall, you can find unique gifts and décor at Exotic Imports , or antiques and collectibles over at Trade Mart . Throughout the year, seasonal pop-up shops rotate, offering unique finds you won’t see any other time of the year.
