Birmingham Highlight: Stash
Stash is a treasure trove of antiques sweetly nestled on the streets of Downtown Birmingham. We strolled through this gorgeous grotto this week and got enough design inspiration to decorate several houses - too bad we only have one. While we’re busy trying to convince our spouses that we should turn our garage into a glam room of antiques, please enjoy this interview with the wonder woman behind it all, Melinda.
Melinda lives in Birmingham with her husband who is her college sweetheart of 25 years. She has two boys - a freshman in Auburn (war eagle!) and the other starting his freshman year at Vestavia Hills. Working as an Occupational Therapist for over 20 years, Melinda always found herself coming to vintage gems as an escape.
Stash began as a “small” corner of treasure in the basement for Melinda to play and display her favorite finds. This little wall of vintage glory quickly grew and eventually completely filled their three car garage - we love a queen with a collection!
Melinda couldn’t help but gush over the brilliant woman on her team at Stash. “Our team includes me, social media wizard, Lynlee Hudlow and the carrier of magic, Amy Hurst. Stash would never be what it is without them. This group came together in the most beautiful & organic way imaginable and I am so thankful they are in my corner!”
When asked what her favorite vintage pieces are in her personal collection, we were not disappointed with Melinda’s answer.
When we visited Stash, we couldn’t help but swoon over the tablescapes and the way all the pieces are designed together. Each item in this collection is incredibly special - conversation starters galore. Melinda is a phenomenal creative with the most intriguing layers of her personality. She is the kind of person that you would want to share a bottle of wine with and DISH. We asked Melinda what celebrity home she would be most excited to decorate and once again, her answer has us all loving her even more.
