When it comes to furnishing your Georgetown University apartment, you want to find the coolest, most unique items for your money. Thanks to Miss Pixie’s, a vintage home furnishings shop here in DC, you can do just that. 

Founded by Pixie Windsor (a.k.a. Miss Pixie) in 1997, Miss Pixie’s has become a must-visit spot for what she calls “furnishings & whatnot,” from dining chairs to artwork. You never know just what you might uncover⁠—from vintage matchbooks to aesthetically pleasing lamps, there’s something new to find. You can furnish and decorate your apartment on any budget. 

Currently, shopping at Miss Pixie’s is available through appointment only, though you can enjoy virtual offerings through their Instagram and window shopping through their website. And, without a doubt, booking an appointment is well worth the effort. For a creative conversation piece or bookshelves to house your extensive Stephen King collection, you’ll find everything you need and then some, with a bit of help from Miss Pixie’s. 

Still unconvinced? Remember: the holidays will be here before you know it. Nothing beats a unique, vintage gift for your friends and family to know you’re thinking of them!
