The Mission
Our Mission is to support locally-owned venues and their communities by providing information & encouragement to explorers seeking an adventurous array of valuables.
The Community
The Treasure Guide is a vintage, resale, and artisan community celebrated through directories. The directories are provided in both print and digital form. Our participating shops include Antique Dealers, Consignment Shops, Thrift Stores, Artisan Specialties, Auction Houses, Architectural Salvage, Resale Centers, Vendor Markets, & more. These treasure troves are usually locally owned and maintained. Many often share their proceeds to other local organizations and families. Some causes include feeding the hungry, shelters for homeless/abused, and cancer treatments/awareness. You never know who you might be helping when you shop local.
We love the thrill of treasure hunting. It’s an adventure that you can enjoy with your friends. Make a day of it! Grab your Treasure Guide and go!
The Guide
Treasure Guide booklets are updated and released 2 & 3 times a year, depending on the region. Guides are distributed to participating shops, neighboring resorts, welcome centers, and more. One listing and map marker is included with each graphic ad reservation. Complimentary graphics are created for new advertisers and also include a photo shoot if needed for larger ad requests. Discounts are often available for those dedicated participants who choose the annual plan, as well as those who provide successful referrals.

“We have been in business for 6 years now and have used the Treasure Guide almost from the beginning. We have tried many different advertising venues. The Treasure Guide has been by far the best advertising we have used and the majority of our customers say they saw us in The Treasure Guide.”

“If you’re a treasure hunter, collector, decorator or vintage & antique enthusiast, Treasure Guide is for you. It is full of great shops, antique co-ops and more with mapped out locations just like a treasure map! I am so happy to be listed in this guide.”
Roseann Ettinger

“We, at the Front Porch consignment shop, feel that the Treasure Guide is the very best advertising option for our business. We no longer advertise through any other media. The quality of the magazine is excellent. Our customers are always appreciative when we give them a Treasure Guide magazine.”
