Brooklyn Flea

Check out Kevin's deals on funky furniture and homewares a the Flea, or take a day trip up to the Hudson Valley for some higher-end pieces. Either way, you'll be supporting his beloved pastime of shopping just for you. (Booth #21 at One Hanson.)

What's your name and company's name?

Kevin Regan, and it's Regan + Smith Antiques.

And what's your hometown?

I'm originally from Providence, Rhode Island, and I live in Hudson, NY, now. It's a destination place with like 60 antique shops on one street, an old fishing town. It takes about 2 hours to get there.

What do you sell and how long have you been selling it for?

We have a shop in Hudson where we sell more designer furniture and decorative. What I bring here is hip, cool, less expensive furniture, quirky home accessories, glassware. Anything that appeals to me that seems fairly priced, I buy it— it also allows me to feed my addiction. I'm just addicted to buying, so I need to keep selling.

What's your most memorable sale?

Does it have to be a sale? There was the lady that fell asleep in our chair in the heat of the summer last year in Fort Greene. That was funny! [Last photo of that week's slideshow.]

What keeps you coming back to the Flea?

I'm getting old, and it keeps you young. It's fun! And it's a really good place to shop.

What do you do for fun, besides shopping?

That's it. Shopping.

And do you have a website?

Yes! It's reganandsmith.com.

Thanks Kevin!
