About
Hi, I'm April, curator of Panoply.
I opened my first retail store in a small vintage house in the historic district of League City, TX back in 2005, where my journey as an antique dealer began. From that point on, I dealt in vintage and antiques in various capacities, selling in antique emporiums, running estate sales, and finally opening Vintage Revival, a destination vintage and antique store in Houston, TX, directly across the street from NASA's Johnson Space Center.

Featured on HGTV, Vintage Revival was a retail store like no other, showcasing one of the largest collections of true vintage clothing, jewelry and accessories in the greater Houston area.
For five years, our team at VR hosted the popular Very Vintage Market Days, conducted appraisals for our clients and public service officers, solved old family mysteries, made new friends, judged the infamous, historic Galveston Bathing Beauties Pageant, and had the honor of being the last anchor retailer in the original Nassau Bay Village historic center, originally built to serve the first families at Johnson Space Center. The property was purchased by Houston Methodist Hospital in 2019, and has since been demolished. |
I went on to sell vintage and antiques on a smaller scale in Los Angeles to prop houses and production studios, at the famed King Richard's of Whittier. My husband's work brought us to Lebanon, TN, in 2020. I immediately realized a void in the vintage market here, and after a three year break from selling (but not from collecting), I am ready to share my vintage Panoply with my beloved historic new hometown!
