So glad you stopped by ~ I hope you'll stay awhile and enjoy what you discover along the way.
I started Whimsy House on a whim, of course, in the spring of 2007. Shortly after my second daughter was born it quickly became evident that my "stay-at-home-mommy" title was overtaking that of "interior designer career woman." My passion to remain in a creative business lead to the start of Whimsy House on Etsy. In the early 90's I owned The Angelic Rabbit, an antiques and gift shop, with my mom in Middleton, WI. My love for vintage goodness bloomed and my retail knowledge grew quickly. All my experiences and interests merged with the creation of Whimsy House.
What a blessing it is to be able to stay home with my little ones while remaining on a fulfilling creative path. I owe an enormous amount of gratitude to my husband, family and friends for supporting me and helping to make my small business a success.
My designs are inspired by all things vintage, the sentimental pieces of the past. I derive an immense amount of pleasure through creating one-of-a-kind accessories with findings from yesteryear. I turn ridiculously giddy over a mason jar of old buttons, a box filled with well worn fabrics or trims, a broken down jewelry box of partner-less earrings and strands of old beads. Oh, the world of possibilities! The pendants, rings and brooches just screaming to be born!
Again, thank you for stopping by and checking out my designs. It's you, my clientele, that make this ultimately possible and for that I will always be grateful.
XOXO Molly
