A little story about a few treasure hunters here in rural Vermont... ❤️✨
I recently listed the most incredible 1800s circus bench here on my page. The responses came pouring in, but what made me smile the biggest was that two of my favorite pickers both reached out wanting it.
Wait... I had something THEY wanted? 😆 Now that felt pretty awesome!
One of them, Jessica Davis from Antique Chic and Thrift ended up purchasing it, and honestly, I couldn't have been happier. A little while later, she left me the sweetest voicemail telling me that this bench absolutely made her day and that she considers it one of her best finds ever.
As a collector myself, there's just something special about that feeling. When another treasure hunter sees something you've found and instantly knows it has to be theirs... that's magic.
Of course, while delivering the bench, my wandering eyes got the best of me. 😍 Jessica's shop is packed with incredible treasures, and I couldn't leave empty-handed! I stumbled across the coolest little antique vanity compact... complete with a built-in cigar (stogie) holder. But around here, we like to think outside the box…This beauty is getting a second life as my new doobie holder! 🌿😂
That's one of my favorite things about old treasures. They're not just pieces of history—they're opportunities to be creative.
Whether you're restoring them, repurposing them, or giving them an entirely new purpose, every piece gets another chapter instead of ending up forgotten.
That's what Stash - Vintage,Oddities, and Treasures is all about. Finding the unusual. Saving pieces with stories. Giving forgotten treasures a new life. And hopefully making someone's day along the way.
Speaking of Stash... the new front porch is finally coming together, and we're getting so close to reopening for regular in-store shopping! I can't wait to welcome everyone back through the doors.
Until then, the shop is still a bit of a beautiful disaster while renovations are wrapping up. 😅 But don't let that stop you! I'm still happily offering private shopping appointments, so if you've been itching to treasure hunt, just send me a message and we'll set up a time. Sometimes those one-on-one shopping trips are the most fun anyway!
Now I want to know...
What's the BEST treasure you've ever found? Whether it was at a flea market, thrift store, antique shop, or on the side of the road, show me in the comments! I absolutely love seeing everyone's favorite finds. ❤️
