The Hidden Acorn

The Hidden Acorn is a vintage and antique shop established in 2017 by husband-and-wife team Andy and Debbie Smith, located at 385 Washington Road in Woodbury, Connecticut. The business specializes in carefully curated and restored antique and vintage furniture, home decor, collectibles, and housewares dating from the 1850s to 1960s, along with restoration hardware and refinishing supplies including Fusion Mineral Paint and other finishes. Each piece in their inventory is researched, cleaned, and either mildly or fully restored to ensure quality, with the goal of keeping these items in circulation rather than discarded. Beyond retail operations, the owners also offer custom restoration services and workshops, and Andy creates handcrafted items such as live-edge shelves from antique barnwood. The Hidden Acorn is not a nonprofit organization but rather a privately owned business that operates Friday through Monday with extended hours, offering both in-store shopping and online purchasing options.
