Pickers Paradise is definitely my kind of Eden. I stopped in during a recent trip through Central…read moreFlorida, and from the moment I saw the metal exterior covered in vintage road signs, I knew I was in for both a walk down memory lane and a serious treasure hunt. This massive antique mall spans over 18,000 square feet and features around 140 vendor booths filled with gently used items, antiques, and vintage finds. The space is spread across multiple rooms, with vendors offering everything from toys and furniture to home goods, collectibles, tools, and art. No matter what you're into, there's something here to catch your eye. I especially loved the mix of old and new--everything from the contemporary Temptations cookware I love to the vintage Pyrex I adore. One booth even had an incredible wall of Loungefly bags. Being in Central Florida, there's also a great selection of Disney-themed items sprinkled throughout. Be sure to follow the arrows on the floor so you don't miss the hidden upstairs area--it's easy to overlook and totally worth checking out. You could easily spend hours browsing here. If you need a break, there's a Touch of Philly cheesesteak food truck on-site, plus a snack counter inside offering chips and popcorn. The friendly staff really enhances the experience with their helpful service and welcoming vibe. Prices vary by vendor--some items were higher than I expected, while others were absolute steals. Keep an eye out for sales, as they're scattered throughout the booths. All in all, Pickers Paradise is a fun and rewarding stop for anyone looking to rediscover a little nostalgia or score a unique find.

I could spend hours in here and and still find something I didn't see earlier. They have a great selection from vintage toys, home decor, Pokemon cards to homemade jams. The prices were fair unlike other antique stores I've been to before. Staff was not only hilarious but most helpful. If you like hunting for vintage items then this is your place. If you're near the Orlando area...I highly recommend making a drive here!

The owners are extremely passionate about their business and are there to assist you every step of the way, whatever the occasion may be. Because the pieces are vintage (with some pieces being from the 60s and up), it can get pricy. But I assure you, with their curation, you'll find something that is uniquely yours. If you are looking for extremely unique vintage and retro pieces, this is your place.

I never realized Lakeland offered such a vast number of quality antique shops and after exploring a…read morenumber of them recently I must say this shop ranks at the very top of the list. Upon entering Southern Gentleman Antiques it became clear the owner definitely appreciates all that visit - after a gracious greeting and invitation to explore every area of the shop he also offered refreshments and made us aware of the public restroom which is rare these days and although I passed on the refreshments I did visit the extremely clean and well maintained restroom I can't say enough about the customer service here. we were encouraged to ask any questions on the merchandise and we were left to explore this beautiful shop at our leisure. Every square inch of this space is neatly organized, very clean and everything is easily accessible and well displayed. The selection here is pretty incredible, quality items priced right, this is definitely a shop you'll want too plan to visit and spend a little cash, I'll definitely return when in the area...

He even offered me a water while walking around. And this place has so much. It's like a giant treasure chest for adults. There are several rooms full, absolutely stocked full of goodies, and it does not look that roomy on the outside of the store. There are all kinds of old school knick knacks, a ton of really beautiful glassware and themed salt shakers. Of course, your pick of gorgeous and unique furniture, locally made prints of Lakeland and even antique shaving sets. As several people asked just in my one visit, this did used to be the location of "What's New" consignment boutique. But clearly, it is not there anymore because they moved locations. Now Southern Gentleman has taken over and they know how to have some classic fun!

If you are on the hunt for treasures then add Bless This Mess to the list! I loved my visit to this beautiful antique store in downtown Dundee. It is just a short walk to the historic Dundee depot museum. After being cheerfully greeted I was left to explore. As I looked around I was impressed with the artful arrangement and staging of furniture, art, and household goods throughout several rooms. Some of my favorite finds were the many vintage Christmas decorations, especially the sweet deer, beautiful furniture, a wreath made out of succulents and flower pots, and the adorable rabbit ornaments that adorned a tree. Prices ranged from just a few dollars to many hundreds. There is so much to see here that brings back memories. Find a one of a kind gift or that perfect piece to finish a room.

Little Place...Big Collectibles…read more The Bronze Lady is a little collectibles store that is about 1 mile from Sea World on S. John Young Parkway. It's a little place, but there's a whole bunch of collectibles and rarities inside. The Good: So much stuff!: From standard fare like porcelain Disney statuettes to the real rarities like a Star Wars snowglobe, there really is something here for everyone. Cheap Collectibles: Most things here are relatively inexpensive, despite being genuine collectibles. The Bad: Room to move?: The place is very small, and is stuffed to the gills with displays. There really is no space to move and it is hard to walk around just by yourself, much less with family (and heaven forbid, small children!) The Bronze Lady is a great place to go if you're looking for rare collectibles for a good price! Just make sure to stay in a single file line and keep your hands to yourselves! Overall 9.2/10= Cool Collectibles!

The shop is laid out very attractively like a country store or someone's front room. Think Cracker Barrel but real antiques. A mantle clock caught my eye and I found that it had belonged to the owner. It is a beautiful Howard Miller clock that chimes. I picked it up for a very reasonable price and did not even try to negotiate. She asked me if I had heard it chime and I said no. Well I put in the car and took off for home. I was thinking about the road and stuff I needed to get done. Well that clock started chiming and was very LOUD in my little car. I almost ran off the road because I was so startled. Haha I am definitely going back to this store. I love their aesthetic and the owners were very friendly and nice. I have my eyes on additional antiques and I love a deal.
