Oddly Enough Curio Shoppe: A Quirky Treasure Trove in Rockford, Illinois
Tucked away in Rockford, Illinois, the Oddly Enough Curio Shoppe is a unique antique store that delights customers with its eclectic and captivating inventory. As one reviewer describes, stepping into this shop feels like "stepping back in time" to the eccentric home of "an old house full of pets and treasures."
The store's walls and floors are "jam-packed with amazing goodness!!!" according to one enthusiastic customer, with merchandise stacked "to the ceiling and in every corner." Reviewers rave about the "beautiful lighting, shell objects, and funky finds from the 50s, 70s and 80s" that fill the space, creating a wonderfully unexpected shopping experience.
Beyond the sheer volume and variety of items, customers highlight the personalized service and knowledgeable staff at Oddly Enough. As one reviewer notes, the owners "actually know their merchandise and selected it from their own visits to auction houses and flea markets, instead of whatever China is pushing this week." This attention to curation and passion for their inventory shines through in the friendly, welcoming atmosphere.
Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Oddly Enough is currently closed for in-person shopping, offering only contactless pickup options. The store's dedicated Facebook page remains active, indicating the owners' commitment to maintaining a connection with their loyal customer base during this challenging time. As one reviewer assures, "If you value old, different, fun and funky merchandise, great service, and friendly owners, [Oddly Enough Curio Shoppe] is the place to go."

If you were lucky enough as a child to have had an eccentric aunt with an old house full of pets and treasures, then you’ll feel like you’re stepping back in time when you walk into Oddly Enough Antiques. If you didn’t, then make up for lost time now and go in! Pet birds twitter merrily and if you’re lucky, you might get to see Dally, the Terrier in Charge. There’s so much to see your eyes hardly know where to land – but I recommend the beautiful lighting, shell objects, and funky finds from the 50s, 70s and 80s. Buy gifts here, and your friends will relive their past instead of a past trip to Walmart. Moreover, they’ll encounter something else they might have forgotten-- friendly owners that actually know their merchandise and selected it from their own visits to auction houses and flea markets, instead of whatever China is pushing this week. If you value old, different, fun and funky merchandise , great service, and friendly owners, put down that tacky catalog right now and head for Oddly Enough Antiques!
