Atomic Mid-Century Summer Style: A Retro Design Guide

Posted on by

This summer has been full of firsts, fun, and fabulous mid-century atomic vignettes! Specifically, Gary and I had the amazing opportunity to collaborate with two incredible antique shops right here in Sonoma County. To start, we worked with Antique Harvest in Healdsburg. Then, we headed over to Antique Society in Sebastopol.

As a result of these window styling projects, we’ve been diving headfirst into visual merchandising. Furthermore, the response from the local community has been absolutely heartwarming

Let’s start in Healdsburg, where we had the absolute privilege of collaborating with the incredible Carol Eagle, who owns Antique Harvest along with her husband Phil. Carol is truly the heart and soul of the shop. In addition, she is one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Notably, her deep knowledge of antiques is only matched by her sharp wit. Because Carol brings so much care into everything she does, she creates a welcoming space where everyone thrives. For example, she even contributed some of her own fabulous atomic barware to our window display.

Carol brings so much care and humor into everything she does, and she’s the kind of shop owner who goes above and beyond to support her dealers—always cheering them on, sharing insights, and creating a welcoming space where everyone thrives.

Designing the summer window with Carol was a total highlight. Gary and I loved every minute! She’s a true vintage visionary and even contributed some fabulous pieces of her own, including Holt Howard atomic barware, classic 1950s books, and original records that added nostalgic depth and character to the scene.

It was a beautiful collaboration that transformed the front of the shop into a vibrant, living postcard from the past.

Gary and I rummaged through our storage units to find the right pieces. First, we grabbed our cherry red Formica dinette set.

Next, we added stacks of vintage suitcases. Additionally, we included pink Pyrex and atomic barware. Finally, we tied it all together with teak lamps curating the Atomic Road Trip Look.

  • Our cherry red Formica dinette set (yes, we’re obsessed!)
  • Stacks of vintage suitcases ready for adventure
  • Classic cameras to capture travel memories
  • Pinup-style polka dot dresses and circle skirts
  • Teak lamps with atomic fiberglass shades
  • Pink Pyrex Gooseberry & Amish Butterprint Cinderella stacking bowls
  • Atomic bar carts and barware and so much more!

We love seeing your reactions! People stop at the front window to smile and point.

We’ve heard so many sweet stories from visitors about growing up with these exact pieces in their homes—or at grandma’s! And for younger generations, it’s been all about the color, style, and “wow factor” of this atomic-era wonderland.

Over in Sebastopol, we brought the heat (and plenty of chrome) with our Atomic Summer pop-up at Antique Society! We were delighted to be working closely with the shop’s inspiring owner, Angela Vidinsky. Working with Angela on this theme was an absolute joy—she’s not only incredibly talented when it comes to color coordination, display, and visual storytelling, but she also brings a thoughtful, values-driven perspective to everything she does.

Wisteria and Rainbows – Living Life in Full Bloom

I love this time of year when the sun is shining, flowers are blooming and the world is colorful and nature is buzzing. We found this fabulous spot blooming with wisteria and stopped for some photos. I am wearing my new favorite dress, a smashing pastel rainbow beauty dress that has the retro kitschy Pinup style I adore from Collectif London. The dress is so pretty and I love the sweetheart neckline, it has pockets, and fits my curves perfectly. I kept the styling simple, as I wanted the dress and the wisteria to be showstoppers. I added my Heart of Haute Sweet Sweater in pink and my vintage 1950s pink poodle purse.
