The Millie McKeever's Story...

Our story...started years ago in the back alley of my families house on 5th Street in Highland Park. It's a messy story...starting in the back alley digging up treasures on Saturday's and taking them to my grandmother's house, Millie McKeever, just four houses away. She would help me clean up my 'buried treasure'. It created a love of me in all things vintage, buried, old, used, tossed aside, unwanted, and anything with rust. You can click here to read the full story...welcome to my alley and 'hidden treasures'.

See our Before and After Projects!

Owning and restoring an 1875 bank building in Walnut, Iowa, where Millie McKeever's is located was a huge project that took a few years, lots of family, buckets of money, serious advil usage for backaches, lifting super heavy items, learning how to use a hammer with precision, and LOVE for an old structure. We also have a one-hundred-year-old house in a historic district in Des Moines that we've been restoring. Come along with us and see just a few of our before and after projects.
