HunkyDory - Preserving Vintage

HunkyDory - Preserving Vintage Vintage store on the historic square in Oskaloosa, Iowa. OPEN FRI & SAT 10-4. APPTS available during the week, please call to schedule! The world is full of new.

Proceeds go towards (501(c)(3), Rescue Me International Animal Foundation. Owner of the store is Cheryl Holub Corns The owner of Hunky Dory, Cheryl Holub Corns, grew up on a traditional, midwestern family farm, surrounded by old people (my ancestors) and houses full of โ€œold stuff.โ€ She loved her childhood, and still loves old people and old stuff. But vintage items bring delightful stories and mem

ories to a space. No assembly instructions with vintage items. Just the opportunity to continue the story of these pieces within your own space. Cheryl has dedicated her life to advocating for senior and special needs animals and addressing the global homeless pet crisis. Cheryl implements Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) promotional effort programs in local communities in Mahaska County in her home state of Iowa, in the United States, and where she spent over a decade abroad in Spain. Her (501(c)(3) organization covers the overall costs of her TNR programs, which includes but is not limited to, spaying/neutering homeless cat populations in both areas, socializing, nursing, and making kittens found in local communities adoptable, and covering costs of fostering stray cats and dogs. Cheryl also operates a senior and special needs animal hospice for over 3 decades in her own home. In 2024, Cheryl spayed and neutered 211 cats in Mahaska County alone. Cheryl firmly believes that the animal welfare of our community is not solely an animal issue. Rather, it is first and foremost, a human issue. Proceeds from her vintage store go towards funding her (501(c)(3), Rescue Me International Animal Foundation.

Happy Tuesday โ˜€๏ธ

Another glorious weather day to welcome and ease students and parents back into school routine ๐ŸšŒ๐Ÿ“š

The end of summer brings inventory tasks to the shop, and brings me to offer glassware and collectible sales/discounts ๐Ÿท๏ธ๐ŸชŽ๐Ÿ’ฒ

First up, is our collection of Norman Rockwell.

Few artists are as closely tied to the American identity as Norman Rockwellโ€”though the idealistic images of happy families, playful school children, and humble towns he created during his 47-year career at the Saturday Evening Post were nostalgic even in their day.

Lovely cups, glassware and bells ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ‘ซโค๏ธ

Grab them at this price point for future gifts, or to add to your own collection.
At this price point, thereโ€™s still plenty of room for resell value too.

Gifts with meaning. Christmas. Teachers.
A thoughtful thank you. So many ideas ๐Ÿ’ก

Iโ€™ve decided to not open today ๐Ÿซ ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿ˜‚

Roccoโ€™s on his way to Chicago via Amtrak to collect his student visa to return to Spain ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ

My special kiddo Jayson hasnโ€™t slept in 2 days, which means I havenโ€™t slept in 2 days ๐Ÿซฉ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

And I was up from 2am - 6am fighting a ๐Ÿฆ‡ ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

So far bat 1 : Cheryl 0

I will not accept defeat so we battle on ๐Ÿงน๐Ÿธ

Donโ€™t worry! I grew up in an old farmhouse and have dueled with many a bat.
Iโ€™m also well versed in animal rescue and know the laws and regulations regarding bats.

ANDโ€ฆ ๐Ÿคช๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
The kids and I are preparing for a glorious estate sale in the driveway at my house.
See flier for more information.

So, long story short.
No open store hours today.
The bat and I need to pace ourselves and prepare for night 2 of our epic battle ๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ†

Be well. Be safe. Cherish your loved ones ๐Ÿ’œ
