Once upon a time is what you will think and "I remember..." is what you will say when you take a stroll through our shop searching through antiques, vintage and wonderful retro collections, primitives and sometimes unique items. It is our joy to search high and low for those special items that are just waiting for you to discover at Woopi Jane's Thangs. You will find pretty vintage glass, quilts, advertising, silver, Victorian era delights, delicate old linens, chippy and crackled painted furniture, great retro kitchen items, sweet antique photos, kitchy creations, steampunked funk, primitive tools and early Americana. We will even keep your wish list in mind as we explore.

E. Gomme Mid-Century Dressing Table


This sweet little vanity style dresser is English and very much the European first cousin to our American Haywood-Wakefield furnishings that have never gone out of style. Just the opposite is true and the quality and style of this is HOT! Making it even more desirable is the fact that IT IS English and the line was not marketed in the states...a rare little jewel indeed belonging to friends Kerry and Brad.

Can be seen at Blue Hills Antique Mall in Geronimo, Texas

A journey began

Sold! Sold! Sold! Sold! Sold!
Was it really that long ago? Seems like only yesterday I was standing on a chair in my Grandmother's modern red and yellow kitchen "helping out". I have learned that a journey is not always forward and in fact can be as simple as a soft and sweet memory. Enjoy the pictures from Blue Hills Antique Mall and plan a trip to Geronimo and a walk, hand-in-hand,  with your own unique memories.
