About

It all started when…

I happened across an antique store for sale. I wanted desperately to own that tiny shop. My love of antiques started as a child, when my family and I would take long car rides and stop at random antique stores along the way.  Those trips would become part of me when I moved away from home. I would pack sandwiches and juice and get lost on the road. That's when I found that shop for sale. But somehow that dream drifted away...

As time passed, and I started doing themed parties for friends, I often found myself drifting back to vintage treasures. What if I started a vintage party supply business? I struggled for years with questions like: How would I  know what to rent? What if no one understood my design choices? What if.....

Finally, without making any commitments, I decided to scout out patterns and makers, broadening my searches and asking questions of vendors. I still remember my first rental purchase. I must have visited that shop 50 times before taking those Currier and Ives plates up to the register. I brought them home, placed them on the counter, and looked at them like a proud mama. This was where I was suppose to be. My heart was singing and it felt right.

Welcome to my joy of everything yesterday!
