My family and I love checking out thrift shops especially when we are out of town and visiting a…read morenew city or town. While in Solvang, we found this really cool vintage thrift shop and walked around a bit. The inside had so many items to look at, but still felt very organized and didn't leave me feeling overwhelmed. They had everything - old records, comics, purses, fur coats, glassware -- even backstage passes from different concerts which I thought was pretty cool. I am always on the hunt for Uranium glass and A Piece of the Past had a few items. One being an ashtray and another being a set of glasses that I am still kicking myself for not just buying. Service was very friendly throughout the store and I also thought that most of the items were fairly priced - it didn't feel like they were trying to gouge anyone. Check them out!

Vintage shopping is my weakness. I always ask my husband -- "Do I need more stuff?" And he always…read moresays -- "No, but let's look anyway." Lol. Happiness set in as soon as I walked through the door. Clean, organized, bright and more importantly -- no old, dirty smell! The first item that caught my eye was a handmade mug. It reminded me of when my grandson was learning the alphabet as he would excitedly shout "N is for Narwhal!" Needless to say, I couldn't put it back down. We browsed every corner and found so many lovely items, including a beautiful vintage vanity (on my wish list). Prices were surprisingly reasonable, which made it really difficult not to buy more. As we were ready to check out with my mug, the husband pointed out a tiny silver scoop in a locked case. He could tell on my face that I wanted to add it to my collection, so he called someone to open the case -- he's such an enabler. :) The staff are easy to find, incredibly friendly and helpful. Such a great place -- we'll be back!

Do be advised that they only take cash, so come prepared. While in the area for a few days, I visited, not looking for anything in particular. The sign outside said 50% off everything, There is a decent selection of clothing and housewares. I will say that on many houseware items, the prices were exceptionally high, even for 50% off. Mason jars priced at $4? Goodwill charges $.99. Serving platters, baking pans, basic houseware items were definitely priced too high, and I left without anything in that area. While housewares may be overpriced, the clothing is definitely very inexpensive. There is a small selection of "name brand" and new clothing items. The slacks and shirts were $1. I purchased two bead sorting boxes, and at 50% off they were $3 each. This isn't exactly a deal, because at Michael's, with my weekly coupon, they are that price. But I chose to buy them anyway. The shop is staffed by elderly women, who I assume to be local volunteers. If you are in the area and enjoy the thrift store hunt, I would recommend stopping by just to see if you find any treasures.

She's with us on this trip and super excited to thrift with me. The shop is small but carries a nice selection of curated items. I found a vintage dress that was a perfect fit for our daughter, and she immediately fell in love with it. It needed to be cleaned and there were a couple spots that needed minor repairs, but it was overall in good condition. The owner was very friendly as we checked out. I mentioned the skirt from our last visit, and she said that they are custom made by her employee -- love that! She showed us another one, but it wasn't quite the same. Hopefully the next one at our next visit will be just right. :)

I have seldom seen a better curated collection than this shop has, and I've never seen such reasonable prices! I walked away with an incredible hand sown sequin designer shirt for under $50! When we left the shop, gleefully, I failed to realize I had lost an earring somewhere in her store, while trying on clothes. I reached out to Sue via email and she responded immediately! She found my missing earring and mailed it back to me. It was my Mother's and was really special to me. This shop owner really understands the value of quality items and sentimental treasures.

It was epic to witness. I've only ever seen items like this at the Getty. This is definitely a place you have to check out and plan to purchase from. I believe the pricing is fair because these are antiques that are made from scratch-- I mean everything is hand crafted. When you see something this nice, you would never want anyone to have a duplicate of it. It's so classy and the staff were incredibly kind. I believe this place is family-run, and it shows in how thoughtfully it's maintained. It felt inclusive and welcoming. Appointments are highly recommended, and this is not a space for children. I noticed they allow calm, well-behaved pets on leash or harness for private parties, which I appreciated. I first visited at 7 AM when they were closed just to admire the exterior, then came back around 12:30 PM to take it all in with better light. I fell in love with so many pieces and will absolutely be back once I have a home closer up north. This store is timeless beauty preserved and presented at its finest.

Decor is a a mix of vintage punk and hi-fi, but does carry a wide variety of genre. Most of the vinyl records seemed to be new and re-issues. Didn't see too many used vinyl, but might be because this place is only about two years old. Price seems similar to most other records stores for new records. It's somewhat hidden because it's on the second level of Jensen's Copenhagen Square. Service can use some work. No one greeted nor ask if I have any questions.
