update from brimfield...

Posted on May 10, 2017 by Stephanie Leggio | 1 Comment

we're taking a quick break to check in with you guys and let you know how our brimfield trip is going so far...

our crew: mary and my mom. (they both go the distance, every day is 10 hours of walking!) these two have been working overtime to make this a successful trip. my mother is our middle man, making runs back to each truck with her pushcart full of smalls we've found.

waiting for new england motel to open... (our favorite show at brimfield.)

at the end of the day, many of these dealers and hardcore shoppers will be at the fancy restaurant in town, covered in filth and sleeping in their soup. (that includes mary, my mother, and myself.)

the cold isn't stopping us this week!

can't start the insanity without a coffee in hand!

we always stumble upon some pretty interesting stuff here...

found (& bought) lots of great old leather...

we always meet some pretty unique peeps in the various show lines... the cold didn't seem to bother these guys at all.

12-hour days have yielded many rewards. the trucks are full and we're back on saturday, may 13th, with the goods. it's the perfect time for you to grab a look at our spoils of victory, and maybe even pick up something extra special for mom.

mother's day is sunday, may 14th... that's THIS COMING SUNDAY!!

if you don't want to wait until saturday to shop for mom, we'll be here all week with tons of stuff mom will love. we'll help you figure out the perfect gift and we'll wrap it for you too!

see you at the shop. (yes, cookies!)

About The Shop

Searching for the perfect gift? Antiquing in the Hudson Valley? We've got just what you need!

Pretty Funny Vintage is located in a beautiful 1890’s Victorian at 80 South Broadway in the picturesque village of Tarrytown, NY... set on the banks of the Hudson River.

Our shop features hand-picked vintage finds in furniture, lighting, textiles, jewelry and clothing, as well as a whole slew of new-fangled curious goods. And we've been at it for more than 25 years.

For us, the best part of the job is the hunt – that's why we're constantly taking road trips up and down the East coast in search of comfortable, casual and slightly off-beat antiques.

In the last few years we've added a new twist – we're not just about vintage anymore. We now feature a line of new gifts and decorative wares from around the world. Whether new or old, our well-curated inventory always shares an artistic edge and an individual viewpoint.

So, if you find yourself in our neighborhood, stop into the shop. We're sure you'll be inspired by our ever-changing inventory set on two floors of fun. If you can't make it in, check out our online store.

Now it's easier than ever to shop with us . . .

Be sure to follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter!

About The Owner

Owner, Stephanie Leggio knows what it takes to keep her clientele happy. With over two decades of showing in NYC antique shows, along with weekly trips up and down the east coast scouring for goods, Stephanie has perfected the art of blending excitement for the off-beat with the comfort of wonderfully-loved antiques.

Her time spent researching and building sets for the theater is reflected in her merchandising, which is more akin to set design than the typical stocking of shelves. Her clientele list of set designers and prop masters has resulted in the shop’s pieces appearing in multiple movies and television productions.

Adding contemporary pieces that compliment the flowing inventory of antiques was a natural evolution. With two floors of ever-changing vignettes, the shop now carries a robust mixture of old and new, all painstakingly picked and displayed by Stephanie. The response to this new addition has been outstanding.

Stop in for a visit, check out our new finds and then head out to discover Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow. Only minutes away to many shops, restaurants, galleries and historic sites.
