About

Welcome to Vintage Market Days®  of Chattanooga!

We are a dynamic duo passionate about small businesses and creating unforgettable Vintage Market Days® events!

Kim was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. There is nowhere she would rather live than in the South! Her background is in accounting, business and event management as well as marketing with various businesses including Chick-fil-a.

She has always had a love of family heirlooms and things with a story. Her most prized possession is a chippy red swing that hung on her grandmother's porch (and now on hers). She spent countless hours on that swing and it reminds her of her grandmother's legacy and the special memories she has of her.

Kim was first introduced to Vintage Market Days® when in Lebanon, TN. She was in love and began attending events anywhere in the Southeast. The vendors were friendly, the items they brought were so unique and her favorite thing to do was to hear the vendor's stories of how they became a vendor, where they were from and their knowledge of the items they had for sale. Kim realized that almost all of them were once like her - working in the corporate world raising kids. It was empowering and the first time she realized that maybe her dream could be a reality. Kim and her husband, Taylor, took the next step and applied as vendors. She never in a million years thought they would be accepted and when they were, she was over the moon! They both had full time corporate jobs and their kids were in college. The events became a great way for them to source, build and spend time together. When opportunity knocked in 2017 and she had the chance to buy into the Birmingham and the North Alabama markets, with the encouragement of Taylor, Kim took the leap and she has never regretted a moment. In early 2021 opportunity knocked again and the Chattanooga market became a possibility. Once again, Kim jumped at the opportunity and is thrilled and excited to have Kristin as her business partner in this market. 

Kristin is a sassy southern sweetheart! Our house mother, as we call her, has been a part of Vintage Market Days® for a few years now and fell in love with the passion, atmosphere and adventures that it brings. She is a graduate of The University of Alabama at Birmingham with a BS in Mathematics and Education. She has a variety of work experience from teaching in the classroom, to being a shift manager for Outback Steakhouse, to being a travel agent and serving under myself as an employee at all of my markets. She comes more than qualified!

Kristin loves to find special treasures that are one of a kind. She says that the opportunity to partner with me in Chattanooga kind of just fell in her lap, and she is so excited that she picked it up and ran with it! Random fun fact, Kristin names all of our 'interesting finds' that we pick up from show to show: the manikins, the moose head over my fireplace, the unique bird house that sits in my driveway. You know, all the cool things. 

Together, we’re honored to bring the Vintage experience® to Chattanooga—an event filled with original art, antiques, clothing, handmade goods, consumables, live music,and so much more. Whether you're a vendor, a treasure hunter, or simply love a charming day out, we hope you feel inspired, welcomed, and at home here.

Bringing the Vintage experience to you®...
