About Me

Welcome to my blog! I'm Kim and I live and breathe vintage. My company deconstructs old houses, then we build new, "old" houses and renovate existing homes (including our own) using reclaimed materials. If you love salvage, repurposing, and vintage, then we hope you'll stay awhile and check us out.
