ROCHELLE – Anyone who enjoys collecting vintage or refurbished antiques rejoice, because a new business downtown is bringing old treasures to Rochelle. Cheri Picked Antiques, located at 525 Lincoln Highway opened in early March for the vintage shop, but hosted their official grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony last Wednesday.
The business is owned by husband and wife Cheri and Dennis Moyer and started from Cheri’s love for anything vintage.
“I love anything vintage, and if you ever come to my house you will see that. It got to the point where I didn’t really have anything left to do at my house anymore,” added Cheri.
Once her house began to fill up, she continued purchasing items but had nowhere to put them. Eventually Moyer decided to purchase a booth to display and sell some of her collection. During this time, she continued adding to her collection until it became much more than a booth could handle. At this point she realized it was time to start a shop, so they looked around for months before deciding on their current location.
