New treasure at UB: this gorgeous antique Macey barrister bookcase.

Our completely unverified backstory is that it once belonged to a small-town attorney whose clients paid him in chickens, whiskey and extremely suspicious parcels of land.

The top shelves held law books.
The bottom held wills, property deeds and at least one handwritten confession that began, “In my defense, the mule started it.”

Now it has retired from practicing law and taken a quieter position displaying treasures at the Upstairs Basement.

BEHOLD.

The dry sink that has survived three marriages, two family feuds and at least one suspicious disappearance.

She has drawers. She has doors. She has dramatic brass hardware and absolutely knows where the bodies are buried.

Would also make a gorgeous bar—but choose your drinks carefully. She’s seen things.

Available at Upstairs Basement.

Nobody needs this many shakers.

Which is exactly why you need this many shakers.

Ten little milk-glass soldiers standing at attention, ready to season your food—or overthrow the government. We don’t ask questions at UB.

Come get them before they choose a leader. 😂

Everyone knows UB is the undisputed leader in the salt & pepper game… but did you know our magnet game is pretty ridiculous too?! 🧲

Funny, weird, vintage, sarcastic—and absolutely unnecessary until you see the one your refrigerator has been missing its entire life.

Come pick your new favorite at Upstairs Basement. Your fridge deserves a little personality too.

Back when kitchens were cheerful, containers were adorable and bacon grease was treated with the respect it deserved.

This vintage red-and-white kitchen set includes sugar and flour shakers—plus the grease jar in back, proudly holding the secret ingredient responsible for every good meal Grandma ever made.

Perfect for a retro kitchen, Hoosier cabinet or anyone who understands that modern cooking oil could never compete with a countertop jar of questionable but delicious intentions.

Available now at Upstairs Basement—because even your bacon grease deserves a cute little house. ❤️

When the group chat says, “Let’s just have one drink and be home by nine.” 💀🎃

Three hours later, someone has stolen two pumpkins, Brenda is sitting on a stranger’s shoulders and nobody can remember where they parked the broom.

These four have been partying like there’s no tomorrow—which, technically, for them there wasn’t.

Come adopt this entire bad-decision support group at Upstairs Basement before they convince the other Halloween décor to go downtown. 🥂

🚨 THIS IS A LAMP POST. Literally. 🚨

Meet Blanche and Gladys—a matching pair of vintage lamps who have been lighting rooms and collecting neighborhood gossip since approximately 1974.

They’ve got gorgeous pale-green floral bases, fabulous pleated shades and the kind of quiet elegance that says, “We don’t discuss money at the dinner table—but we absolutely discuss everyone who left.”

The pumpkins sitting between them have heard things they can never repeat.

Available now at Upstairs Basement. Sold as a pair, because after all these years, separating Blanche and Gladys would be cruel—and possibly dangerous. 💡💡

Some people decorate for Halloween with tasteful little pumpkins.

Those people do not shop at Upstairs Basement.

Meet Spaghetti—part cat, part clown and part sleep-paralysis demon. She carries a tiny pumpkin bucket, wears pantaloons with alarming confidence and has the facial expression of someone who just heard the treat bowl is “one per child.”

She’s a collectible Joe Spencer Gathered Traditions creation, which means someone handcrafted every glorious, unsettling inch of her. She’s large, weird and guaranteed to become the only thing your guests talk about.

Available now at UB. Come get her before she learns how to open doors. 🐈‍⬛🤡🎃

This is Gerald.

Gerald has been a ghost for 147 years, but he’s still startled by absolutely everything—doorbells, ceiling fans, unexpected eye contact and the phrase “quick team meeting.”

He showed up at Upstairs Basement wearing his finest shredded formalwear, carrying one tiny emotional-support ghost and looking like he just remembered he left the oven on in 1879.

Gerald is a collectible Joe Spencer Gathered Traditions piece, gloriously dramatic and available now—unless he sees his own reflection and flees the premises.

Come get him. He’s been standing there gasping for hours. 🖤
