Retro Den Holiday Gift Guide: Shopping Local in Tulsa

December 10, 2017/ Retro Den Vintage Home Store and Design

Sometimes this time of year can feel so busy and often over-commercialized. But that is where shops like ours step in. It's lovely and good to buy gifts for our family and friends, but no one wants to buy presents just because it's a prescribed tradition. Shopping local and handmade is a way to reign back in the meaning of this warm and generous season. To this end, we've put together a Retro Den shopping guide to assist you in your gift giving this year!

We are working out little hearts out moving furniture and preparing the shop for the Alliday Show which is happening tonight and tomorrow! Come by and see us and pick up some local gifts, support your neighbors and have a fun, festive time. Even though, we've been huffing and puffing rearranging furniture all week that didn't stop us from browsing the web for our favorite design content. Take a load off and enjoy!

We're in love with the sunny yellow bed in this bedroom and just looking around this pretty bedroom is a calming experience.

Decorating Your Home For the Holidays

As you know, I enjoy decorating for the seasons. Last year I began storing my Christmas decor in my coffee table which is a giant wooden trunk (pictured above) and so this year, it was so freaking easy to get everything out. We only had to venture to the attic for the tree and a few strings of lights. Before I put my Christmas stuff in there, the trunk was empty. WHAT WAS I THINKING? So yes, this year it was so easy to get everything out to decorate. Plus, Caroline was old enough to actually be excited about decorating, so that gave us another boost to break out the holiday cheer.

Hi folks,

It's been a long week, but we made it to the weekend. This time of year is always a little crazy on its own without other life challenges thrown in, so hang in there!

We're busy preparing for the Alliday Show which takes place next weekend, December 8th and 9th at our shop. It's free admission both days, so mark your calendars! Until then, enjoy these pretty things we sought out for you this week. Oh, and thanks for reading.

We want our girls to have big girl beds like this.

Tulsa home styling: A sweet and simple vintage boys' room

November 26, 2017/ Retro Den Vintage Home Store and Design

We always say our clients are stylish people, but this has never been more the case than when we worked with local blogger and house renovator Emily Netz. Emily and her husband Jeff recently renovated their 1920s Tulsa home (which you can see and read about here) and Emily designed and furnished nearly every space except for her boys' room. When it came to this room, Emily felt stuck on how to create the space she had imagined in her head and wanted an extra pair (or two) of eyes to help bring it to life. We were more than happy to help!
