I have a special spot in my heart for all things retro and the entire 1950′s. I loved the style of clothing, the music, the pinups, the decor, the style, and what seemed to be a certain nostalgic innocence that only that special decade could produce. In fact, I love this era so much that in just under a month I will renew my wedding vows with my husband in a Rockabilly/50′s themed ceremony. Luckily, I’ve been introduced to the perfect website to help fill the void that not being a true part of the decade I love so much has left.
Retro Planet is your one stop shop for retro gifts, decor, furniture, tin signs and more, all at excellent prices. Regardless if you’re seeking to redecorate your entire home in a retro theme, just one room, or are searching for only one item, it’s fairly likely you’ll find it on Retro Planet’s easy to navigate website. Their kitchen tableware and furniture really caught my eye with an amazing array of retro bar stools, aprons, dispensers, and restaurant items to choose from. I could seriously see myself re-designing my entire kitchen someday. Retro Planet’s tin sign selection for example, offers over 1,000 different signs that add a special nostalgia to any area of your home, even your garage. With unique designs like gas station signs, Coca Cola signs, celebrity signs and more, one or ten will make a fun conversation piece or an amazing gift!
Retro Planet also offers an array of classic toys that you can watch your kids or grandchildren enjoy, just as you did. I know Bub is starting to really enjoy his sisters’ older Mr Potato Head collection so I will be purchasing him his own for the holidays. You can’t go wrong with fun, old school favorites like Wooly Willy, Barrel of Monkeys, jacks, cap guns and small green army men. If you’re planning a retro themed party, Retro Planet has you covered there as well with a great variety of party hats, paper products and favors.
When I was given the opportunity to review some products on Retro Planet, selecting them certainly wasn’t an easy task. There was so many different items I just loved. I have an infatuation with pinups. In those days, curvy women were all the rage and in my opinion the world of modeling and fashion will never be the same since. I thought the most wonderful accent to our master bathroom toilet area would be a few pinup themed signs. I chose 3 fabulous signs that fit our already painted (remember our huge master bedroom/bath project?) color scheme and when they arrived I could not have been happier. The signs were high quality, wonderfully made and as you can see from the picture above, are indeed the perfect accent to our toilet area. At around $18-$20 each, you can’t go wrong.
As an added bonus I also selected this awesome Tiki Of Happiness figure and placed on a shelf in our bedroom right between my wedding bouquet and our owl couple figure we got in Mexico. My husband loves all things tiki so I knew this would make him smile, and indeed, I was correct. So far, this tiki has brought even more happiness to our home as things are currently looking prosperous and bright for our family.
I was very satisfied with my overall Retro Planet experience. Not only was every product I received exquisite quality, but their website is divided into easy to browse categories so you can either take your time and browse everything or know where to look if you’re in search of something special and don’t have time to waste. My order process, checkout, and shipping were all simple and fast as well. Thank you Retro Planet, you’re out of sight!
