Meet Mike


 

My fascination for vintage treasures started at a young age with my grandmother, Mama Ruby. Every time my family visited her and Papa Jim in Georgia we would frequent thrift stores and flea markets. Their home was a treasure trove of beautiful furniture and whatnots. Mama Ruby instilled in me, a love for glassware, ashtrays, unique trinkets, and wicker furniture! Who knew a couple of decades later I would be a full time vintage dealer!

 I grew up in a small town East of Little Rock. After high school I attended The University of Arkansas at Little Rock and graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Marketing. After college I worked for my family’s business in residential construction.

I started Mid Mod Mike in July of 2020 in Little Rock, Arkansas out of pure happenstance and entrepreneurial drive! It was an honor to be featured in Little Rock Soirée Magazine in 2021. Read the feature here. In 2022 I was named as one of the 10 Best Antique & Vintage Stores in Little Rock. And in 2023 Mid Mod Mike was listed again as one of the 10 Best Antique & Vintage Stores in Little Rock by Little Rock Soirée Magazine! 

Currently, I live in and operate my online shop in both Arkansas & Colorado! I travel the roads between the two as well as other states to find the goods! I started my business on instagram ,  @midmodmike and have since branched out! Now can shop my vintage treasures in person as well. In Little Rock, AR at Moxy Modern Mercantile, and in Fayetteville, AR at Aunt Bill’s Vintage & Antique.

My favorites finds are of course mid-century modern furniture, mid-century glass, vintage lighting & home accents, brass animals, and eclectic ashtrays.

Get to know me best by staying or creating content in my Denver home, The Disco Den! Located in downtown Denver, my loft is decorated in 60s & 70s style with bold colors, groovy furniture, and vintage details that make every corner camera-ready. Whether you’re crashing for a weekend or staging your next shoot, The Disco Den is equal parts retro retreat and creative playground.

Thank you for visiting my online store! I hope you enjoy your time here! Please reach out with any questions or inquiries! I would love to connect
