It all started here...




Nation and Son Antiques in Kelso WA. (about 35min North of Portland OR.) Is responsible for my collecting habits. I grew up in my Mom's antique store and I caught the disease. When I turned 18 and moved away from home, I said " I don't want your OLD junk, I'm buying new furniture!" We all know that didn't last long, having the keys to the store, I would sneak in a take a few of my favorite pieces until I had nothing new left. Now we go to auctions and outbid each other.

My mom has been in the Antique business for about 30 years. She just expanded her store to almost 5,000 sf. I am am Very proud of her. Owning a business with your Mom/Best friend is a blast. I only wish she lived closer. She visits on buying trips to Vintage Vegas many times a year. After all what is Nation and Son, without the Son?


Check out Nation and Son Antiques if you are ever in the Northwest. Feel free to call and inquire, because we ship back and forth all the time.

Mid-Mod Living Room



We love it! Not just the great Mid-Mod decor, but also the fact that we didn't take this picture. One of our readers, Diane Bush handed us a couple prints of their cool collection.

Diane is also in the business of selling Vintage Clothing. If you would like to talk to Diane about a hot new (old) wardrobe to match you your hip Vintage home, shoot us an e-mail or better yet comment, and well connect you!

Our friend Dan from New Jersey also sent us some great pictures of the Mid-Mod architecture back East & we'll be sharing some of our favorites with you soon. We love to see more and more of you sharing your Very Vintage experience with the rest of the community.

What we're doing here is really is all about people who "get it" coming together and while we collect all the cool stories, pictures, etc. we can; we're officially still only a small group of full + time lovers of the reVival. Thank you so much to all of our readers for your comments, e-mails, pictures & stories! We really are re-building an amazing community in Vintage Las Vegas!
