I created this set for a local photographer using stock from my shop and my own original broken china mosaic designs.
I bought my first antique in 5th Grade
If your heart beats faster for vintage, you are welcome here. My style is all about the joy of contrasts. I like sweet things, but only with coffee!
That's why I stock a big fat section of floral cottage decor AND another category of hard-edged, industrial decor. And clothes. and jewelry. And books and papers and my personal favorite...vintage prints, paintings and artwork. I think carefully about what I stock in the store and really love each piece you see here.
I absolutely believe in vintage. My own house if full of it. It is made better, lasts longer and has much more individuality than anything from a big box. It is a joy to me to help you find the kind of personal and expressive things that make you feel more like yourself in your own skin and in your own home.
I come from a long line of antique collectors and vintage buyers. I grew up surrounded with McCoy pottery and thick 1940s cotton tablecloths. I've been buying my clothes from thrift stores since I earned my first babysitting money. It's been my story ever since I can remember. It makes me happy to share it with you.
