The Story Behind Sprout & Sage Vintage Co.
How a lifelong thrifter turned treasure hunting into a love language.
Hi, I'm Kristina — vintage collector, plant mama, wellness explorer, and lifelong thrifter. But more than that, I'm someone who's always believed that the things we surround ourselves with tell a story. And honestly? The best stories are the ones that have already been lived.
Sprout & Sage Vintage Co. was born from a simple truth: I couldn't walk past a flea market without wondering about the hands that once held that brass candlestick, or the table where those etched goblets clinked together in celebration. Every piece whispered a history, and I wanted to be part of keeping those stories alive.
What started as weekend flea market runs and estate sale treasure hunts slowly grew into something bigger — a curated collection of brass, glass, and nostalgic home goods that I handpick with intention. I'm drawn to pieces from the mid-century era and the boho revival of the '70s, times when design felt both functional and soulful. There's a warmth to these decades that modern mass production just can't replicate.
Why "Sprout & Sage"?
The name reflects my belief in growth and wisdom. Sprout represents new beginnings — the idea that old things can take root in new spaces and bloom again. Sage honors the wisdom these pieces carry, the patina of time, and the grounding energy they bring to a home.
This shop is more than a side hustle. It's a slow-living, heart-led extension of everything I believe in:
🌿 Thoughtful, intentional spaces
🛋️ Timeless design over trendy consumption
✈️ A life filled with beauty, curiosity, and meaningful connection
My sourcing philosophy
I don't just buy vintage — I curate it. Every piece I bring into the shop has been chosen because it made me pause. Maybe it's the way the light catches an amber glass vase, or the satisfying weight of a solid brass planter. I look for quality craftsmanship, unique character, and that ineffable something that makes you want to pick it up and bring it home.
I spend my weekends driving to estate sales across Oklahoma, digging through dusty antique malls, and building relationships with fellow collectors. It's treasure hunting as a love language, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Part of something bigger
Sprout & Sage Vintage is part of a growing brand family that reflects the things I love most:

Together, these brands form a full-circle lifestyle: one that's grounded in intention and inspired by discovery — whether it's a thrifted brass swan, a well-loved pothos, or a getaway somewhere new.
