Our Story
Once upon a time, in former lives, Paul and Christy both worked electrical commercial construction. They met on the jobsite and soon formed a partnership that has lasted thru the years triumphs, challenges and diversities.

About us
We’re a team of two vintage pickers with an artist’s eye guided by curiosity and a love for creative expression. When we’re out picking, we’re not just hunting for vintage — we’re looking for pieces that spark something. Sometimes we’re looking for feeling, other times it’s the physical appeal of the worn edges, unexpected colors, or quiet imperfections that speak to us the same way a blank canvas does.
As artists, we’re inspired by movement, layers, and emotion rather than rules. That way of seeing influences everything we do — from how we choose each piece to how we style, photograph, and sometimes transform it. Vintage and painting feed each other in our work: old forms inspire new ideas, and art gives familiar objects a fresh perspective.
Our work lives at the intersection of past and present—where nostalgia meets creativity. Whether an item remains exactly as we found it or becomes part of a new artistic expression, its story is always respected.
Every item we share with you has been thoughtfully chosen, not for trends, but for connection. Whether you’re collecting, creating, or simply surrounding yourself with things that feel meaningful, our hope is that these pieces find a place in your story.
Thanks for being here and seeing beauty the way we do — imperfect, expressive, and full of life.
