Antique Junkie

Woo hoo! Antique Junkie has me addicted! I’ll be visiting this shop whenever I’m back in Olympia.
This store is chock full of small-​sized estate finds, mainly jewelry, precious stones, chandeliers, and antiques, along with random items like door pulls, ocean themed decorative hooks, and geodes.
When we first walked in, all of the bling hit us right off the bat. My boyfriend and I looked over an eclectic mix of jewelry, from precious to semi-​precious stones to sterling silver to designer costume pieces.
There are several cabinets with small drawers labeled with more items inside. It was like treasure hunting, going through everything in the drawers.
Found a watch for $ 15 in one of the little drawers. Also found a Betsy Johnson gold and diamond skull necklace that was to die for that my boyfriend bought for me and insisted I put on right at the register.
The employee was a doll and she offered to wrap the items for us, asking if they were a gift. She also removed the price tags and made sure the watch was set to the proper time.
Definitely check this place out if you’re looking for some jewelry or other small antiques or estate finds. This is a real gem.

I love this shop! They have everything from earrings to door knobs to beer coasters. This store is a gem.

An absolutely fabulous place to find sparkly and amazing costume jewelry, antique odds and ends! I haven’t been in for a while, but when I was more of a regular, I got to know the staff and they remembered me. Always helpful for my personal tastes and what’s really going to work.
I find their prices, especially on jewelry, amazing and the inventory rotates often. A truly special shop downtown.

Jewelry and breakable appears to be their specialty! Staff is pretty cool and let’s the girls try on the jewelry! Also if you are in the need for Olympie beer items or door knobs thy got you covered. Nice little shop.

Depends on what your looking for, but I love this place, they have a section with little charms, and stone jewelry that is beautiful. I go for that! Great place to find little presents for loved ones or that one of a kind item, like a gentlemen the other day found a King octopus gold necklace.

Mostly fashion jewelry and very small items.

This place is a girly-girl’s paradise. I thought I had died and gone to sparkle heaven. No lie. But then my bestie Jeannie J. pinched me and I came to my senses.
From the moment I walked in I knew I was in the right place for a jewelry whore. That’s right, I know what I am and I am not ashamed to admit it.
There is an entire dresser drawer devoted to just sparkly belt buckles. My jewelry whore other bestie Oscar B. probably sleeps in his Liberace-​esque belt buckle he loves it so much. He also snagged a really cool painted domino that will be turned into a dazzling necklace.
There are oodles of fabulous rings, glittering tiaras — one never knows when a tiara may come in handy, amirite? I was tempted by glamorous, red-​carpet worthy necklace and earring sets, the kind of stuff that I typically wear on a Saturday night. I am just ostentatious that way. Ask anyone.
In addition to bodily adornments, there are embellishments for your home as well. Don’t forget to check out the elegant door handles and knobs for your drawers and cabinets. They add a splendid touch to any home.
There were superb lanterns hanging from the ceiling just daring me to take them home. Alas, my tiny flat is filled to the brim and thus, I left them for you. You’re welcome.
If you live in Olympia, you are lucky to have this shop. If you’re like me, a visitor, I can’t wait to come back, the sparkle fairies have got my number.

Beautifully chosen items.
Mostly jewelry and locally sourced vintage such as Olympia Beer paraphernalia. I have been on the buying and selling end, and they are very helpful and fair in price. I don’t usually go to vintage stores, but I would absolutely do business here again.

Stopped in here one time because it looked interesting. I’m so glad I did! There’s so much stuff to look at here and all fair prices. My husband came in with me too and found a knife he looved
