Race Into Spring On MCM Wings!
**Update #1 3/18/2018
New photos added and more will be coming almost every day! Working our way through the S&P shakers now and sports memoribilia, Vintage Christmas and garage items are next on the list. Stay tuned for more!***
When you step into this home you will be immediately transported back in time. This lovely home is like a time capsule for all the best of the 50’s & 60’s. You won't believe your eyes as you shop room to room! When this house was built it was pure 1960’s family style luxury with all the extras added. Now, the past and the present mingle to create a true mid-century and modern home.
As you enter the foyer, look left and the rock wall entry will call you to stroll down the hall into the 3 bedrooms PACKED with delights. Look right and the oh-so-retro bar area will convincingly invite you to come sit for a moment and sip your imaginary cocktail while you admire the decanters and the variety of quality barware. The giant metal art on the wall behind you makes you stop mid-sip to admire it's dramatic flair and examine the clock nestled in the center of this massive piece. After you turn away from the clock art you can't help but stay a moment and get to know your new friends over a game of pool at the vintage Fischer Single Slate Pool table.
Under the glow of the vintage neon bar sign (Herman Joseph's 1868), you check out the nifty pool cues, peruse the history within the ephemera (old newspapers, brochures, etc.) and jive to the sounds of your childhood that stream from the beautifully preserved GE record player within the stereo cabinet. The die-cast cars, humidor, card games and sprinkling of decor add the touch of masculinity to this “Lounge Area” that will be appreciated by all who stop by.
The kitchen awaits you as you continue your journey. Walking into the kitchen will bring back memories of your mother or grandmother in her apron at the kitchen sink preparing for friends and family to arrive for dinner. Everywhere you look there are gorgeous dishes, Tupperware, and retro coffee cups. You can almost smell the delicious scent of her cooking as she fills the Pyrex, Anchor Hocking and Corning Ware with her secret recipes and hear the happy voices as she chats with her friends about the plans for the evening.
In the connected breakfast nook, the wall holds the beautiful Lenox spice rack with tiny houses filled with spices that grandma won't let the grandkids play with. Browsing the modern appliances looking for just the right addition to you your kitchen, you can't help but notice the incredible collection of 250+ antique and vintage salt and pepper shakers that took a lifetime to gather and lovingly preserve. Stopping to admire the variety is a must! Pick out the perfect set (or 3) and turn to gaze at the dining room!
The stunning dining room table with 3 leaves and matching china cabinet speaks of a quality that isn't easily found in these modern days. It is heavy with Pfaltzcraft, Homer Laughlin and fabulous flatware.
The walls are adorned with bookshelves that are loaded down with a wide variety of modern and vintage hardback books that always give those at the table the perfect topic for conversation over a home cooked meal.
Don't miss the small rolltop desk that reminds us all that even in the best of times, business calls.
Reminiscing on the past and recreating the scenes of your childhood has brought you to a living room that has all the advantages of most living rooms in America, but maintains the authentic feel of a true 60s home. The subtle tan of the luxurious Lazy Boy reclining sofa and loveseat helps to bring out the drama and glitz of the giant gilded mirror behind the couch. The fireplace hearth is laden with a more modern record player and a wide variety of vinyl records and LPs as well as a few 8 tracks, cassette tapes, CD’s, Disney VHS, and DVDs. On the mantle you see exquisite crystal, fine China, beautiful decor and other treasures that draw the eye.
Speaking of treasure, are you a gold and silver lover? What about fantastic costume jewelry? Vintage coins? How about adorable dollhouse miniatures? If so, stopping by our Tiny Treasures Counter will be absolutely thrilling! We are limiting the number of people allowed at the counter at one time and will have a strict guidelines on etiquette expected there. Please be prepared to get a ticket number at the register when you walk in the door so that your wait won't be long when you get there.
The garage is the next stop and although Spring is in the air, Christmas reigns supreme on one side of the garage. Vintage Christmas decor and ornaments will take you back to a simpler time when Christmas was truly magical. Shiny bright, German crystal and ornaments from Poland are what you may see on the boxes as you pass. The lighted lawn reindeer are sitting in wait to pull the matching lighted santa and sleigh.
The other side of the garage is a direct contrast with the Christmas side. Things heat up as Summer reigns here. Pool accessories, yard equipment and tools are in season! A like-new lawn mower, Craftsman tool chest, edger, weed eater, blower, power tools, hand tools and a variety of lawn and garden tools as well as life jackets, pool floats, camping chairs, vintage fishing gear, and 5 bicycles line the far walls.
From the garage to the patio to catch a breath of fresh air and check out the treasures stashed out there. Grab a bottle of water from the cooler on the picnic table and dive back in.
The patio leads back in through the Master bedroom where the king size, heated, vibrating water bed stands in the center of a drool worthy MCM bedroom suite. The Century Furniture Co. dresser and nightstands, with their sleek lines and futuristic look, are gorgeous and in pristine condition. If you look up you may be dazzled by the gorgeous mid-century light fixtures and sleek retro ceiling fans that look as if they were installed yesterday.
Vintage luggage of all sizes stands below a lighted globe lamp as if they are ready for your next trip. Tucked along one wall is a vintage Singer sewing machine in a fabulous MCM table that looks as clean and new as the day it was brought home from the department store. With attachments galore, and sewing supplies bagged and ready for purchase, you reconsider starting the sewing project you have been meaning to get to.
Heading out of the Master, stop by the master bath to grab any medical supplies or first aid kit supplies that you may need.
The first room you come to after the master is a crafter’s delight. Filled with scrapbooks that date back to the 30s, another MCM sewing machine with a Kenmore that works like a dream hiding inside. A king bed in the center of the room is the staging area for ladies shoes, purses and wardrobe accessories. The closet has a lovely selection of ladies clothes and the decor in the room definitely shows that elegant, feminine touch. From candles and ornate picture frames to floral arrangements, beautiful mirrors, and darling collectibles, spend a little time finding the perfect piece of decor to help bring a touch beauty and interest into your home.
The final stop on this whirlwind tour is for our sports and entertainment fanatics! If you like vintage celebrity autographs, you will want to spend a lot of time in this room. If you love sports, you may want to move in! If NASCAR is your thing, bring the defibrillator, you may need it. From vintage to modern you will find memorabilia and collectibles that should make you smile. Men's clothes, coats and jerseys fill the closets and it seems that every inch of wall is covered with either an autograph or a piece of sports art. The bobble head dolls could make anyone smile and the futon is perfect for extra seating and/or an extra bed for your home.
As you exit the last room and head toward the register with arms full of treasures, we hope to see smiles on your faces, hear laughter and sighs of delight, and feel your excitement as we ring up your purchases.
