Houstory, Heirloom Registry Garner Praise from Antique Trader Magazine

The Heirloom Registry has been featured in the most recent issue of Antique Trader Magazine.

In the article, Houstory founder Mike Hiestand answers questions presented by the well-respected and popular antiques and collectibles publication.

We are so honored and excited to be featured in the magazine, said Dan Hiestand, Houstory marketing director. This is a big moment for our growing company. We feel we have a lot to offer to the antiques and collectibles market.

Antique Trader editor Antoinette Rahn said The Heirloom Registry is a valuable tool for antique collectors, antique dealers and family historians when utilized.

"A great many collectors are drawn to an item for the memories and experiences that surround it; it's what helps define its character, said Rahn. Whether it's grandma's silver flatware, dad's fishing lure collection, or the dresser a couple finds at a little antique shop on their honeymoon, every piece carries a piece of someone's life with it. The Heirloom Registry affords people the opportunity to preserve, reflect and celebrate that nostalgia today and for years to come. It solidifies the nostalgia and its importance in a person's life."

Being profiled by Antique Trader has another plus for founder Mike Hiestand.

My wifes legendary cheesecake recipe came from Antique Trader. She clipped it back in the 1980s when her folks were regular subscribers. Ive told my in-laws about all the new media stuff we do (blog, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube), but it makes little sense to them. Now that were in Antique Trader, were finally real!
