The date has been set for the ribbon cutting for a new vintage gift shop in Del Ray.

Stardust Vintage & Gift (1904 Mount Vernon Avenue) will formally be unveiled to the world at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 14. The event will include a continental breakfast, cake, and a toast to the business’s good fortune.

The location was formerly home to the antique shop La Brocante, which has since relocated next door to 1906 Mount Vernon Avenue. The new shop is owned by Amy Eggers, a founder and manager of the Del Ray Vintage and Flea Market.

“My store will feature vintage merchandise, as well as new items made from vintage goods, new vintage-like items, and even some curated collections from our wonderful flea market vendors,” Eggers said in an email. “In addition, I will be hosting events, workshops, classes (for kids & adults), and ‘Backlot Bargain’ sales on a regular basis.”
