Vintage & Industrial finds at The Vintage Shed in Tyabb
You can't beat a good rummage through vintage and industrial knick knacks on a lazy Saturday afternoon, can you? Trouble is, the good stuff gets snapped up too quickly in this city - Melburnians just have SUCH good taste (!!), it's almost impossible to find a bargain anymore. That's why you have to plan a day trip to The Vintage Shed in Tyabb!
The Vintage Shed is lovingly run by husband and wife team Jodee and Tim Goddard, who set up shop with just 5 stall holders only a year ago, and have already grown to 60 store holders! Wowsers! No sign of economic downturn on the Mornington Peninsula, clearly!
The Vintage Shed is essentially a huge warehouse of Vintage stuff from the early 1900s through to the 1980s, all from individual dealers selling under one roof. Have a look at the pics on their website and you'll get a better idea of the immense amount of stock we are talking about! ALSO 'The Vintage Emporium' section has an extensive vintage clothing range, full of amazing designer clothing to rival what you'd find in many city vintage stores.
The Vintage Shed also hosts the local Farmers Market on the 3rd Saturday of every month - the next one scheduled this coming Saturday! With a sunny 27 degree day forecast, I really can't think of any excuse not to bundle up your boyfriend / housemate / kids and head down for a day of vintage fossicking and fish 'n chips on the beach!
Come on now... summer won't last forever!

I haven’t seen this place – thanks! Once in a while we go to the Packing Shed Antiques which is nearby and I was devestated that the Mornington one closed – and even more devestated that I missed the closing down sale! All I have are the photos I blogged a while ago…
Will be sure to check this place out!
oh no. you just told everyone my secret place.
shhhhh…..
Bless you. There is nothing better than going to my in box and finding out about another Melbourne treasure – thank you for keeping me in the loop.
Those illustrations are very original and interesting. Love ’em.
I love Tali’s illustrations!
Just stubbled over this blog and don’t want to leave, my eyes are amazed by Tali’s
creativity, no words could do her justice. LUSH
Hi all
Great to see Vintage Shed on here and get the promotion, I have a stall there B3 shown in photo’s featuring Pepsi box & streets sign, this is only a part of our business as we sell on E bay and have a factory in Seaford full of items similar to our stall at 8/2 Apsley Pl Seaford just off East Link. open every Friday & Saturday 10am – 2pm, if you love to browse, resell, or just love the oldwares we are worth a visit for some great priced items
i think this will have to be a stop over on my road trip to melbourne from bangalow next week, thanks for sharing, cheers eve
Thanks for sharing this! It’s only 25mins away from my friend’s house in Safety Beach so I’ll definitely be dropping in when I visit Melbourne next month!
Thanks for sharing. I went there on the weekend you wrote about. Shame I wasn’t alone though, otherwise I’d have spent heaps more time and money ;)
