2021 Ring in New Times

/ Sandy Bryan Vintage Home / Leave a comment

We are happy to ring in a new year at Tumbleweed and Company. Our first one at the 517 location has been quite eventful during 2020 but we are happy to have successfully survived and glad to have added a new dealer with Ralph Barnett of Sacramento. He brings decades of experience in vintage and his eclectic finds mix very well in the shop. We can’t wait for all of you to meet him as faces start to come out in 2021.

We will continue our hours of Thursday thru Saturday from 11am to 4pm. We have had many of you come by appointment in the off days and that has worked very well during Covid-19. If things need to change, we will let you know.

Here’s to a safe and solid 2021!

Your team,

T and Co

Fabulous first week of 2020 New location!!

/ Sandy Bryan Vintage Home / Leave a comment

Our Grand Re-opening was a huge success.

We had an amazing first week though we did run into a few technical difficulties. Phase one was to get the front of house ready, open, and all by the 16th. We still are working on pricing the front, and our internet.

    Now, phase two begins. Back of house is the annex, where we will store excess items that may or may not be for sale, depending on the season. Also in the annex is our “garden/salvage” area. These areas should be ready this month or so; please ask to check the back area.

    See you soon.

    We had a special party this week for family to reveal all of the hard work it took to move our shop from one warehouse to another. We had a 4,000 sf shop, a yard and a storage shed. Now all under one 7,500 sf roof, we redesigned ourselves and our layout for more shopping, and more opportunities for art workshops. It has all come together beautifully in just 90 days (from electrical, ac and) paint, during the holidays and our big January 1 epic sale.

    Now see our new home at 517 Vernon Street.

    We open on Thursday, January 16th at 11am.

    Our new hours are 11 to 530

    Wednesday thru Saturday.

    Our move to 517 Vernon Street is almost complete – Grand Re-opening Details

    / Sandy Bryan Vintage Home

    As you may or may not recall, in October we had the opportunity to begin a move into a new building.

    We have been working swiftly and quickly preparing the new space and packing/moving over starting from the back and our yard. All the while, we celebrated all the fall and winter Holidays in the front of the shop.

    As business ran at 515, work began at 517. New paint, AC and heat, and lighting to update the already cool building.

    Last week, our final event occurred at 515. Our January 1st Epic Sale. It was huge with everything discounted at amazing prices.

    AND IT CLEARED OUT THE REST OF THE SHOP!!!

    So we are ready to move onto 517 Vernon Street.

    Please join us on January 16th for our Grand ReOpening. We will celebrate from 11 to 530. We will also be demonstrating our next workshop on that day – Felting with Marianne. Come on by for a visit. We cant wait to share the new store with you!!

    Road Trip Midwest Part 2

    / Sandy Bryan Vintage Home / Leave a comment

    Our awesome friend Jayce from @a_beautiful_purpose lives in Iowa and we met a few years back in California. Since then we try to meet up in her neck of the woods for some quick and dirty Junkin. This time, she lined up a barn dig that we were happy to oblige in clearing out. The barn belonged to Larry’s grandparents and was falling over. In the 1950s,the new quonsut hut was built for storage and the barn sat. That was our destination… And it includes goodies from the hut too.

    We carefully climbed to the second story and instagrammed live the feed of that dig. Not sure how that works so much but did any over you see all the racoon s%!T? It was quite impressive to say the least. But we found some great old gears and wooden blocks up there. Jayce scored a huge window piece we knew we could not get out.

    Finally, we got to walk around the rest of the property and my second favorite part, the cows. The larger cow was super friendly and headed over each fence visit. You can see by the pic. It definitely was one of the highlights of the trip if not ever!

    If you want more authentic vintage in the Midwest , the real stuff like you find here with us, get to A Beautiful Purpose in West Branch, Iowa. Cute town, excellent shop and friend.

    Road Trip Midwest Part 2 – Junkstock

    / Sandy Bryan Vintage Home / Leave a comment

    Headed to Junkstock for just about the full three days of the event. We made sure to visit most of the vendors to support, shop and check out what is new, hot or unique to bring back to the shop. There were pretty cool farm and primitives, we learned alot and made lots of friends that we new on Instagram but had never seen the faces. Several people sent us on leads to future places to stop along the way. Junkstock is fantastic because it is big enough to spend three days but small enough to grow our Vintage family.

    Here are some picks:

    We ate from The Rude Shrimp Co. All three days. Incredible food and shrimp choices.

    Plasma cut cans from. Sean and Jenny Olson of Roadside Relics

    Hot air Ballon rides on Day One. They were beautiful in the evening.

    Making our big Midwest trip now. We left yesterday and made it to Omaha. What a treat already. We were referred to a shop in a part of town and the owner just picked a ranch.. We were able to rummage his truck and the small renal car already has locker baskets, some concrete swans and an old, old rake. Woo-hoo Nebraska. Tomorrow is the Husker game. Looking forward to the red sea tomorrow.
