Home Tour: A Rose Vintage Shopping Soiree
Home Tour, Inspiration Folder, Seller Profiles, Shop Profile
Hi TVBers! My name is Brandy and I’m the new video editor for The Vintage Bazaar markets and blog! I’ll be doing event videos, home tours, interviews, shop-alongs, and anything else I can think of to bring you a behind-the-scenes look at our vintage sellers.
Samantha Balk of Rose Vintage
My first project came just in time for the holidays, Samantha Balk of Rose Vintage was hosting a holiday shopping soiree in her new Chicago apartment and invited me over to check it out. Guests sipped on punch and ate incredibly delicious snacks (just try to watch the clip of her spread without your mouth watering) while shopping her winter line. The best part, besides her adorable sheepdog Otis mingling happily, was seeing all the guests have fun trying on the goods! What a great party.
Enjoy a glimpse into the beautiful world of Samantha Balk’s Rose Vintage. Click through for the video or watch on Vimeo here.

Are you brave enough to own this couch? Find it on Krrb.com, right here. I hastily re-styled it in Photoshop using some of cushionchicago’s awesome pillows, which just happen to be for sale on Fab.com right now. I picked the crazy quilt pillow because I figured why not layer wild with more wild.
How would YOU style this couch?
Retro design inspiration can easily be found in shows like Mad Men and Boardwalk Empire, but one probably wouldn’t think of Supernatural as a show with amazing set decor. But friends, it is full of it. The brothers Sam and Dean hop from city to city throughout the series and usually end up bunking in “outdated” flea bag motels, which are chock full of awesome retro and MCM pieces.
Like crazy wallpaper and kitschy art.

There is a black marble pedestal table headed towards my home. (A family hand-me-down.) It looks a little like the table in the photo above and I am asking you all for a some help picking out the right chairs. Right now, I have Burke tulip chairs paired with a scraggly old wood table. I like the clash of plastic-y sleek with the rustic wood. So, I am hoping to find a clash that works with a Baroque marble table.
But, what will work well with the heavy table style? Share your opinions here in the comments or on our Facebook page.
While we’re all pondering let’s take a gander at some dreamy chairs that could work if I had the dough to even consider them.

We’re days away from TVB’s pop-up at Renegade Craft Fair! Did you know that you can preview the goods on Krrb.com? Our friends and partners at Krrb set up some of our vendors with “corners” to showcase their wares before the event. But, really anyone can use Krrb to sell secondhand — it’s like a souped-up Craiglist.
Onward to some sneak peeks!

I was browsing the Dethrose Vintage shop and came across this perfect summer-to-fall blouse. I love that Karyn paired the simple top with skinny, cropped black trousers. But that top is begging for a statement necklace and after reading Leilani’s post about lockets and memorial jewelry I just had to add in a Bakelite mourning/sweetheart ring. I finished off the look with some weird-in-a-good-way plastic and cork shoes. Fun! How would you style this look with vintage accessories?
