Picture it. You've stopped for an iced coffee (or whatever fun drink is your favorite). You're in your vehicle listening to your favorite song with no plans other than to bop around town looking for treasures.

Thrifting is Retail Therapy

Maybe you are redecorating a room, or you have a kiddo growing like a weed, and you need a deal on some new-to-you clothes. Owensboro has lots of great options for shopping consignment sales, or piddling around a thrift store for some retail therapy.

Kitschy Tchotchkes, Vintage Toys, and Bits of Nostalgia

My office here at the studio is like the Little Mermaid's grotto. Shelves and displays of collections including kitschy tchotchkes, vintage toys, and bits of nostalgia. A little random, but you can't say it isn't interesting! I love "junking" so much, my husband and I took some engagement photos at The Trading Post back in 2010.

Where to Find Vintage & Antique Decor in Owensboro

I have people ask me all the time where to go to find antique & vintage pieces without breaking the bank. So, I have been working on a list of the best places in Owensboro that I like to go. There are a couple of them just outside of the city limits, and I've also included shops with newer items and resale clothing. We have some really nice stores, and some of them benefit worthwhile causes in our community.

This Quirky Henderson 'Hidden Gem' is a Vintage Lover's Dream

I love treasure hunting! One of my favorite local shops to visit is Corkscrew Curiosities in Henderson. In an old house at 920 2nd St. is the most adorable little quirky haven of vintage treasures, books old and new, trinkets, stickers, fidgets, clothes, jewelry, local art, and even some wild oddities. Here's just a taste of this unique must-visit spot.
