Happy 9th birthday!

pam kueber - Updated: October 28, 2016

Retro Renovation stopped publishing in 2021; these stories remain for historical information, as potential continued resources, and for archival purposes.

9-birthday
I forget by a day every year — happy birthday to we — we’re nine — yesterday, Oct. 26! That’s like, what — 35 years — in blog years? To celebrate, I’m taking Friday off to go estate-sale-ing — see you Monday!

    Happy Birthday! I haven’t been with you the whole time, I wish I had! I so enjoy your stories! I grew up in a midcentury ranch house, I don’t know if it still exists,so I enjoy the visual treats.

    Happy Anniversary!!!
    Looking forward to your Sunday e-mail makes my day:) I have learned so much from your site, seen gorgeous furniture, happy houses, heard what your other followers contribute. A genuinely warm family that I’m proud to be part of-thanks for creating all this.

    ONLY-9 years? Seems like we’ve been doing this a lot longer! This site has been an amazing resource and a big help, though I must admit extreme jealousy over the big renovations that people make.

    Congratulations girls! I love this site, even more now that we’re restoring our 1948 rancher. 😉
    Thought I’d say that I just saw some pink boomerang Wilsonart (I think) on CL. Not big pieces, but maybe for a project like that cool vanity I just saw here.
    Anyway, kudos to you both! When we get moving again on our project ($$ of course) we’ll send pics!
