Shelly Thompson
Owner and Home Decor Stylist

The Notebook Cafe invites you to visit our sweet shop, Millie McKeever's Vintage & Home Decor. My grandmother, Millie McKeever, would love her namesake store, as would my mom. You'll notice their touches everywhere. I am passionate about Millie's because it's about family, traditions, values, and love...that's what makes Millie's truly unique. Yes, we love our decor and design, but my hope is that my family can inspire your family with design ideas and tips for your own home, home decor, unique gifts, family recipes and traditions, and sharing my writing inspired by my faith and family. Millie McKeever's Vintage & Home Decor is...for your heart and home. Shelly Thompson, Owner

Our location offers new home decor, specially selected 
vintage pieces, The 5th Street Candle Collection (candles created from Shelly's family recipes), gift items, casual women's clothing and accessories, recycled military tent canvas purses, greenery, floral, and much more. You'll love the warm welcoming atmosphere of Millie's restored 1875 historic bank building in Walnut Iowa at 201 Antique City Drive boasting 16” ceilings, beautiful chandeliers, and a quaint charming space.

​We’ve beautifully staged select vintage items paired with new home decor, giving you lots of inspiration. This sweet shop received its name from The Notebook Cafe Publisher, Shelly Thompson's grandmother, Millie McKeever-Stout. Many may know of Millie McKeever from Shelly's second book 'Heart of a Warrior - A Legacy of Faith'. (Click here for more information on 'Heart of a Warrior').
