Flippin' Family
Flipstone Furnishings
Flipstone has humble beginnings rooted in resilience and creativity. It all started when Dancing, driven by the necessity to support her household during challenging times, embarked on a journey that would transform into a family business. Initially, she ventured into flipping mid-century vintage furniture alongside her husband, Jesse.
Over four years, Dancing and Jesse dedicated themselves to reviving and selling unique pieces of mid-century furniture. Their passion eventually led to establishing a physical store, a space where customers could experience their curated collection. However, their vision evolved, prompting them to transition operations back to their home, where they crafted a personal workshop.
As their business thrived, Jesse felt compelled to explore his individual passions. To support this pursuit, the family made a collective decision for Jesse to take a step back from the business, allowing him to focus on his personal endeavors while still contributing in meaningful ways.
During this pivotal period, Dancing began discussing new ventures with her sister, sparking the idea of establishing a thrift store...

Flipstone Vintage & Thrift
These conversations marked the beginning of a new chapter for Flipstone, ultimately leading to the creation of a unique thrift shopping experience - Flipstone Vintage & Thrift!
Dancing and Lily have always been avid thrifters, drawn to the thrill of uncovering hidden treasures and the sustainability of secondhand goods. Despite their affinity for thrift stores, both started feeling a sense of frustration with the existing thrift market. They noticed that many stores either had sky-high prices or lacked the inviting atmosphere they envisioned. With a desire to bridge this gap, they set out to create a thrift store that embodied their ideals.
Their vision was clear: to establish a thrift store that felt more like a boutique vintage haven—a place where stepping inside would evoke excitement and joy. They aimed to strike a perfect balance between thrift affordability and the curated feel of a boutique.
What started as a passionate idea quickly became a reality when they stumbled upon the ideal location and secured the lease. Despite the challenges that come with launching a business, they embraced the opportunity wholeheartedly, fueled by their shared dream of crafting the ultimate thrift store experience.
