Vintage Props and Furnishings: Meet Disregarden!

Design love fest vintage props styling furnishings

Know how your mom taught you that eavesdropping is rude? Recently rudeness paid off for me big time. Right before we shot Bri's apartment for Rue, I was scouring the Melrose flea market in LA, hunting for last minute treasures. I happened across an amazing booth called Disregarden, where the proprietors were deep in conversation with a customer. I hovered, ears open and eyes askance.

As soon as the pesky customer ahead of me left, I nabbed the husband and wife owners of the vintage casegoods, refurbished frames, and mini succulent gardens. 'Oh hey,' I said, and stuck out my hand in greeting. 'I love what you're doing here. We have a photo shoot coming up, and we'd be thrilled to borrow some pieces.' Cause when you're in a pinch, it helps to be straightforward like that.

And that's how I found myself in Bri's loft, two days later, with Jessica and Jonathan Taylor, the founders of Disregarden. These guys are amazing. Not only do they have an incredible company that sells and rents the coolest found objects around, they're tons of fun and full of positive energy. I mean really, I picked them up at a flea market and now we're practically family!

Check out the video from the shoot–Jess and Jonathan helped us build Bri's new bed and decorate her Christmas tree, and the armloads of props they brought from their trove really completed the loft. The best part? You can snag these goodies yourselves! The Disregarden site and Etsy shop is a feast, and the couple is a joy to work with (plus did you see those dance moves?) See? It pays to eavesdrop!

  2. You had me when you said they have an etsy shop. My kryptonite. Bri’s loft is a goldmine of vintage treasures and I loved the piece you wrote up on it!! 🙂

  4. If I warn that there was *this* much left on my version of the size large using the Madelinetosh Tosh Chunky and they go out and buy just one skein and end up needing another one to finish the size large . . . perish the thought (this isn’t cheap yarn–and the dye lots vary quite a bit).

  7. I will be heading over to their website, as soon as I stop and say hello. All I have to do is scour around my Mother’s house. She still has those phones, measuring tapes and every crazy thing that has marched in with 7 children. Come by and say hello.
    Best,
    Liz
