HI Pam, I tried to find the little pink reindeer you bought at Target, but I can’t even find them on their website. Did you buy them this year? Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Yes, I bought them this year. They were a big hit and sold out on the website fast. You need to try stores, I guess, at this point…
Pam,
I am looking to add a mid century bar to my basement and I want the cabinets to feature bottle bottom panes, any chance you know of any manufacturers that still make this time of pane??
I’m looking for the bullnose style from the 60’s. Do y’all have a store in the San Antonio area.
I don’t sell anything. See this story: https://retrorenovation.com/2012/07/16/12-places-to-find-4-x-4-ceramic-bathroom-tile-in-vintage-colors/
Hello, I was getting ready to cut down my countertops and realized I have a couple layers of laminate…one being GE Textolite Gold Nugget. Do you know if this laminate has asbestos in it? I have researched as much as possible and cannot find a definitive answer.
Drew, to get the answer to a question like this you need to consult with a professional. Check locally/regionally for places that will test materials for you.
Hello, I was wondering, in your experience with all these vintage stoves, has there ever been talk about how to get grey scuff marks off the stove top? I have a 60s GE avacado stove that has scuffs not scratches. Is there a good person to talk to about this or do you know of a solution. It would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Ely, on issues like this I recommend consulting with the manufacturer or another professional who can give you the latest advice.
did I miss the section that tells me how to clean the non-skid mat on my tub?

Perhaps 6 months ago you had an advertiser who offered front doors with an ‘Atomic’ shaped window. I have searched since then but have not been able to find the advertiser. I have looked at all your current advertisers who offer doors without finding the item. I would appreciate any help you can offer. I love your site. We now have a 1957 home with knotty pine cabinets and a pink tile bathroom!
It’s probably Make It Midcentury, she still advertises but the ad rotates — https://makeitmidcentury.com/
Curious if you know of any sources that sell new vintage-looking green toilets?

Hi, on an article you posted about Dave and Kristen’s mid century living room wall was the rug I’ve been dreaming of in their living room! I see several people have asked about it, but I couldn’t find a reply. I know this was a few years ago, but good wool rugs seem to be on the market for many years. Is there a different contact for them, or could you put me in touch with them somehow? Or could you find out for me? I’ve been searching forever and haven’t seen anything until this article I stumbled upon! Thanks so much for all you do for this priceless, beautiful time period! Jackie
I’m wondering if anyone is having trouble getting the retro-styled vent-a-hoods. I ordered mine June 1st, and it was scheduled for deliver mid-August because of a 12-week lead time. In mid-August the delivery date changed to October, and today it changed to late December. What is going on? My poor contractor is ready to kill me.
Hi Donna, I haven’t heard from anyone else with the same issue. I tend to think: Items that are rarely ordered — specialty items — can indeed be subject to long delays. Ugh.
I really prefer to talk to someone by phone. I’m wanting price information on your wood paneling that is like ours put in our house. Our house was built in 1972. A contractor looked at it and told me it is real wood paneling unlike what is being sold now by Home Depot. It was damaged by a different contracting firm with water pouring down on it from two pipes that they broke.
Hi Virginia, I do not sell anything. Please see the stories themselves — the retailers or manufacturers are identified in them. Usually there is also a hotlink to their website, it’s in bold bright blue. Good luck.
