Get cozy on sofas and mattresses that do not use PBDE (polybrominated diphenyl ether) from companies like IKEA (8000 Ikea Way). Vintage furniture is a good choice to keep the past alive and recycle an old piece instead of buying something new.
The St Paul Retro Loop has five vintage stores within easy distance. Shops like Swank Interiors (1910 University Ave) and Up Six (157 Snelling Ave N) are some of our favorites for furniture, lighting, and housewares that still serve their purpose after 40 years.
