In a metro area rich with history, character, and the thrill of the unexpected find, Timeless Relics & WhatKnots has become a vibrant thread in Denver’s antique tapestry. But its story begins far more modestly — with a single booth, a passion for the past, and a dream that refused to stay small.
Timeless Relics & WhatKnots first opened its doors to the public in 2016 as a vendor at Heirloom’s Antique Mall. What started as a side hustle quickly grew into a calling, expanding to additional spaces at Antiques Etc., The Brass Armadillo, Lafayette Flea Market, Hampden Street Market, The Old Crows, Colorado Antique Gallery, Homestead Antiques, and other beloved antique destinations across the Denver metro area. Each move brought new customers, new treasures, and a deeper connection to Colorado’s thriving community of collectors and vintage enthusiasts.
After many years in the corporate world, the antique business began demanding more than evenings and weekends — it demanded heart, time, and full attention. The “side hustle” had become a fullfledged business, and the next step was clear: it was time to build something of our own.
With that vision in mind, we began searching for a small facility — just enough space to create a cozy, independent antique shop. But as any treasure hunter knows, the right find often comes when you least expect it. Many of the properties we toured were already leased or simply too small to make the numbers work. Then we discovered the building at 1410 South Wadsworth Boulevard in Lakewood, Colorado — a space that didn’t just meet our needs, but expanded our imagination.
What began as a plan for a small shop quickly transformed into something much bigger: a fully realized antique mall. Today, Timeless Relics & WhatKnots proudly hosts 50 exceptional vendors, each offering thoughtfully curated booths filled with history, artistry, and the joy of discovery. Together, they create a destination where every visit promises something new — a place where stories live on through the objects we cherish.
From a single booth to a bustling 7,000squarefoot community marketplace, our journey has been shaped by perseverance, passion, and the belief that the past still has plenty to say. And here in Lakewood, surrounded by fellow treasure seekers and the vendors who make this place shine, we’re just getting started.
