My name is Shara Ibalio, owner of The Treasured Attic. My obsession
with the 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's started at a young age. My
parents were really into antiques, so naturally I followed. I can
still remember the first retro item I received. It was a
hand-painted sugar container from the fifties and it now sits in my
red, black, grey, and white dinner kitchen. This little gift from
my father started a fascination that lend to an obsession (as I like
to call it). Since then I have been collecting vintage furniture,
lamps, clothing, electronics, house wares, records, and the list
goes on and on. When I was in high school I was lucky enough to
find someone who did not mind my obsession.
My husband and I were married in August of 2006, and you guessed it,
we had a 1950's wedding and luau reception. If you click on the "My
1950's Wedding" button on the home page, you can view a few of the
pictures we posted for everyone to enjoy, so take a gander. If you
have any questions or had a vintage wedding please e-mail me. I
would love to see pictures and/or answer any question you might have
able my wedding. After getting married we/I looked for a vintage
place to live.
We currently live in a 1960's townhouse, which I have entirely
decorated in the vintage style. I have even gone as far as
collecting 40's, 50's, 60's , and 70's interior decorating books so
that I get it right. I would hate for another vintage enthusiast
to enter my home and see something out of place. Not including the
TV, computer, and other electronics because these things you cannot
help but update. |
