A Little Bit About Us

It all started when our barn got too full of “old stuff” to fit our cars.  Something had to be done!

For years we had casually searched for the perfect location and building for an antique mall business, but just never seemed to find exactly what we were looking for.  So our flea market, estate sale, and antique auction finds just kept piling up in our barn for our future dream business.  When Keith retired from his floral business in 2007, the search for a building suddenly became more than just a casual pastime.

Who would have guessed that a chance drive through the quaint village of New Paris, Ohio, would lead us to a stately and somewhat dilapidated old IOOF building (Independent Order of Odd Fellows Lodge) built in 1873.   It fit all of our criteria – just two miles from a major interstate, in a small town with local tourism interest, and perhaps most importantly, a price tag that was within our budget!  (See more about the history and rehab of our great historic building on the Building History link.)

After many months of hard labor and calling in every favor we ever had (and then some) to bring our old IOOF building back to life, the barn was raided and stored up treasures were installed in our freshly cleaned, painted, and patched-up building.  Within a year we added a number of dealers and filled up three stories of space, causing us to look for ways to expand. Since that time, the basement and next door building have been incorporated into mall floor space.

Fast-forward thirteen years and the New Paris Antique Mall is now bursting with over 10,000 square feet of antiques offered by nearly 20 dealers, and it’s just the right size for a delightful antique-hunting excursion in a country setting.  We’re not so big that you become overwhelmed with mind-numbing row after row of items that begin to look alike after a while, and just large enough to well-satisfy your itch to rummage and find a great buy.  We pride ourselves in providing a wonderful array of affordable antiques of many styles and periods that are nicely displayed in a friendly, inviting, and clean atmosphere.

A stroll through our historic building is a delight to the senses as you enjoy the spicy smell of country candles and the salty taste of warm popcorn fresh and free for our shoppers, all while reminiscing to some nostalgic music piped throughout our building for your listening pleasure.  And if you come on Saturday, you will be happily greeted at the door by our Boston Terriers, Sophie and Audrey, who wiggle up to every visitor and are always eager to earn a pat on the head.

Funny, we started out wanting to make room in the barn for our cars.  But now that we’re actually in the business, our cars are still sitting outside and the barn is more full of antiques in line for cleaning and repair than when first began!
