Meet Local Maker Bianca Howell of Owl and Drum

Meet Local Maker Bianca Howell of Owl and Drum

Meet Tulsa Maker Bianca Howell of Owl and Drum. Owl and Drum is Tulsa's "one-stop shop" for modern fabrics, quilting and sewing supplies, sewing classes and gifts. When we were on 15th Street, Owl and Drum was across the street and to the east of our shop. I remember walking across the street to say hello and meet my neighbor businesses. We didn't know then, but that was the start of great friendships and business relationships. We love working with Bianca because she has an enviable knack for color and creativity. We carry her napkins, tea towels, modern quilts, and pillows in our shop. I, Ashley Daly, make tons and tons of baby clothes from the beautiful fabrics from Owl and Drum. We also host craft nights where the ladies of O&D share skills with us and customers. I always leave feeling inspired after spending time with Bianca. Read more about this awesome Tulsa maker.

Retro Den Thankful Sale: Black Friday + Small Business Saturday

Retro Den Tulsa Sale

Today gratitude is more important than ever. We are thankful to have the opportunity to run our small business in Tulsa, Oklahoma. When we took over Retro Den more than three years ago, we didn't anticipate how it would evolve into a place of community, inspiration, and belonging.

A place to gather. Whether embroidering a tea towel with friends on a vintage sofa, crowding around Succulent Sara with fellow plant-lovers to learn the proper way to care for a succulent, or talking with a local artist about her work during the annual Alliday Show, we are thankful for the ways our shop brings our community together.

A place to be inspired. You come in to share your ideas, feel motivated, observe beauty, and dream about ways to make your home a space that brings you energy and joy because you know your surroundings matter. 

A place to belong. We are thankful for your kindness when you come into our shop. We love that you talk with us about your homes, your families, and your lives. Whether sharing a compliment, a beloved plant or a story, you make us feel like we belong and we hope we make you feel that way too. 

As a thank you to you, dear customers, we are happy to announce our annual Thankful Sale this year, November 25 and 26, Black Friday and Small Business Saturday! We will offer a store-wide discount of 20% to all and 25% to newsletter subscribers (sign up here!). We only offer deals like this twice a year, so come in say and hello, have a look around, get some early holiday gifts, and pick up that piece you've been thinking about for yourself.
