Retro Gifts

Wow, can you believe how popular the Retro theme is? Last night my husband came home from work with a huge letter “C” for my son’s room. I began to sing the theme song from the “Mary Tyler Moore” Show, remember that show? Mary had a huge letter “M” on the wall, every girl went out and got one, my sister had a letter V.

Retro furniture, clothes, music and of course candy! I have found some really great sites that are all about Retro, here are some of my favorites… http://www.retroplanet.com/ wow this sites has a little bit of everything. I love the kitchen tables, vintage posters, toys and more. I would love to re-do my kitchen and make it look like an old fashion diner; sometimes I feel like a short order cook.

The next site makes personalized vintage reproduction signs, has gifts for her and him and they even have pink princess phones. I picture myself lying on the bed chatting on this phone to my girlfriends. For the music lover they have Reproduction Jukeboxes, how cool is that and they use Cds. You have the look of nostalgia with today's technology http://www.jackandfriends.com/store/customer/home.php

My very favorite site is http://www.groovycandies.com/pc/ of course it’s all about candy. This site represents the nostalgic candy era. From Turkish taffy, wax lips, candy cigarettes to candy buttons they have it all.

 This site inspired us to design our new Retro candy cans. Our cans are quart size and come in three styles well, years 50’s 60’s and 70’s. Each can design represents the year and is filled with candy from that time period. This is a perfect touch for theme parties, a great gift or even centerpiece. (pics coming soon).


We have posted this information without being asked and hope you share with us some sites you have visited.


Have a Groovy Day!
