Retro

I'm strapped for time today, so I thought I would share a few sites that have cute and unique retro stuff. The fabric below will soon be valances on my office windows. I just love it. I ordered it from RetroDepot. It came beautifully wrapped in tissue with stickers and a collectible postcard. I just can't say enough good things about this place and I can't wait to order more. Our house could easily become a Tiki palace.

Another great site is The Naughty Secretary Club. Lots of interesting things there, including neat jewelry and purses. I haven't bought anything there so I can't really recommend their store, but the merchandise looks cool.

One more you might want to check out is Atomic, touted as the Essential Guide to Retro Culture, it is the website of Atomic magazine. There are articles, lists of events, and of course, you can subscribe to their magazine.

One I found today is melinamade. It features retro fabric, wallpapers (the kind you put on the wall), and glassware. The price on barkcloth here is more than double what it is at RetroDepot.

That's it for now. Happy "retro" shopping!
