Getting Started--We're Under Construction

Have you noticed furniture and decor from a few years ago, while outdated, is usually such better quality than the items in stores today? We sure have, and we're on board with the movement to rehabilitate items with history and potential after a little love investment.

We can't wait to populate this blog with photos of our refurbished furniture and housewares! For years the gals at Vintage Gypsy have been searching for "diamonds in the rough" to rehab. The results? Funky, fun finds--much of it vintage, shabby chic, retro, and primitive--to spice up our homes. But our enthusiasm has grown larger that our houses and storage space, so we've been sharing our items with other folks. Response is so positive we're starting a blog and taking to the Internet to share even more great items.

What can you expect from Vintage Gypsy? Vintage and retro furniture that starts off outdated and ends up colorful, fun, and aligned with the styles in magazines right now. Vintage dishes, linens, decorative items, and holiday decor that support the eco-friendly trend to revive great items from a few decades ago. New lampshades and pillows that coordinate with a modern vintage, shabby chic, or fancy chain store look at more affordable prices.

The focus is on great decor, affordability, recycling, and reveling in the details that make our lives good and our homes comfortable and adorable. We hope you'll join us in the adventure.
