LA Junk Antiques — Local services in Garden City

Oh, LA Junk...how I used to adore you. Stepping into your quirky, treasure-filled space was always such a joy—the charming flowers and buzzing bees outside still give me a little smile when I arrive. But lately? Walking through those doors feels...off.

Where do I even start? The organization has gone from "cozy vintage" to downright clutter chaos. Merchandise stacked in the dirty bathroom? Really? And the atmosphere—once so warm and inviting—now feels tense, even unwelcoming.

But then I went outside and that's where the magic began! There's a bunch of different vendors in all the charming wooden alcoves. There's music playing, and plants, flowers, and lights dotting the pathways. Around every corner there's more to find! I could have spent a ton more time strolling through the lovely and peaceful surroundings, but my mom was waiting in the car. I told her she missed something great when I got back in the car with my finds. The next time I visit Boise, I will have this shop first...

Throw the doilies and dolls aside. You won’t find either here. This boutique style antiques store specializes in unique home décor heavily influenced by French countryside, vintage industrial, and everything in between. Locally owned and operated by a mother daughter duo along with various vendors all who are working tirelessly to find and curate this shop with the coolest vintage the Treasure Valley has to offer. Karen and Callie go the extra mile and have a knack for finding that one item that completes a room or home. Drop by for one of their events and listen to some yesteryear tunes from the internet radio station, Martini in the Morning, the brainchild of Karen’s husband. Or stop in whenever to shop their extensive store complete with vendor outbuildings which are chalked full vintage wares. You...
