I had the honest pleasure of meeting the newest family business to open in Old Towne Orange today. The shop is called Vintiques and I’d say that it’s…inspired. Owners Irma and Ken Haraughty opened up shop just a couple of months ago in the space where The Hope Chest used to be, just around the corner from Pakua.

A return visit to DOWN HOME ANTIQUES reminds me why this store’s name fits so perfectly! Down Home Antiques’ welcoming warm feeling is evident the moment I walk in, complete with a characteristically enthusiastic “hello” and genuine smile.

What seems like just yesterday…I worked for the merchandise division’s visual department at the Happiest Place on Earth.
