It’s Meet the Vendor Monday at Olive Branch Antiques! This week we introduce Rebecca with Rebecca Calkins . Rebecca’s space is full of her eclectic vintage charm mixed with some moody retro vibes. She has a joyful personality and eagerness to create the best shopping experience for our customers, which is what we love most about her! She is the perfect addition to the OBA family! Here is what she shares…
Hi I’m Rebecca! I think my love of the hunt started when I was a young girl. I spent a lot of time with my dad traveling around Michigan going to garage sales, picking up deals and trades and even finding some awesome curbside treasures! As the oldest of three, with only one working parent, we rarely had the newest toy but we always had some of the coolest! It wasn’t just my dad either, my mom loved a good sale and even at a young age I can remember holding onto a curbside find on the bike as we pedaled home or cramming’ something into our old Volkswagen Beetle. I had my daughter Zoe late in life and made the decision to leave my corporate job and stay home. This led to finishing our basement which ultimately triggered the beginnings of my own collection! In 2015 I took my first booth space in Holly, Michigan and it’s been an amazing journey! The creative outlet has gotten me through some really tough times including losing my mom! I’ve met so many wonderful people and through that journey I met Mandy! I would describe my personal style as very eclectic, rustic meets feminine. I can’t resist and old camera or clock, any taxidermy, rusty scales and a piece of furniture that needs some love! I enjoy camping with my family and sampling local craft beverages! I’m so grateful to be a part of Mandy’s beautiful store and the Olive Branch Family!
