There's just something about a vintage floral that can make even non-floral-lovers feel a tingling sensation in their hearts. We've felt this heart tingle many times during the years of owning Retro Den as vintage floral pieces come and go out of our doors and our lives. Today we take a step back and pay homage to the beautiful vintage florals we've had the joy of knowing over the years. Please enjoy our ode to the most lovely vintage florals.

This week we hosted our first Succulent Planting Workshop at the store and we had a great time. Thank you to everyone who attended! We cannot wait to host more! Be sure to sign up for our newsletter if you'd like to be among the first to know these dates. Other than that, we've been busy running the shop with our new studio mates, recording home styling YouTube videos (which you can expect to see early next week!) and of course finding beautiful things for you all to look at this weekend. Enjoy!

At the moment of writing this, our dear friends Sarah and Adam Heatherington's Lortondale home is up for sale! We've had it on our list to take photos for a home tour, so we ran over there as soon as we heard our time was dwindling. We are so happy to share this thoughtful home with you.
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!
Well, I can't believe it. Our kitchen is actually done. Done, I say! It's been so long, I'm ashamed for you to look back to see the date of the "before" kitchen post.
Okay. It was April 30th.
So that means the kitchen's been about six months in the making. Now to be completely fair, our kitchen has been functional since mid July, but the "finishing touches" took nearly as long as the bulk of the demo/installation. But whatever. It was our first renovation and we went at it without a general contractor and it's done now, so who cares if it took six months? Who's even counting, right? (I can say that now that it's over, because I did care. I was the crazy woman counting!).
The difference between minimal and unfinished decorating
I've been lying in bed thinking about this quite a lot over the past year. My life ritual is to swing from one extreme to another, then gently wander my way into middle ground. I did this with boyfriends. I did this with work. I'm doing this with my bedroom decorating, duh. So my once packed bedroom became quite a blank canvas this past year. And it's from this place, I have been contemplating the difference between minimal design and something not quite finished.
