My husband Joe and I created this fun business out of the love I have for treasure hunting of vintage and antique furniture and collectables. We offer beautiful vintage and antique furniture, cool eclectic California decor and room packages. I absolutely love hunting for treasures! A diligent thrift store shopper, garage sale buff and a good flea market fun seeker! I’ve turned my passion into a purpose and love my work! When I was just a small toddler, I was told that wherever I walked, I was sure to pick up a shiny penny or find a seashell or something odd and curious. All were treasures to me. One of my fondest memories was my grandmothers jewellery box. I recall often sitting for what seemed like an entire afternoon with “Mom-Mom”. As she would allow me to hold a bracelet or wear a strand of her pearls, each piece would elicit a story of her life. She would get so happy and excited to share where the piece came from or how it made her feel. I adored her happiness as her beauty would shine through those memories of her younger self. During summer vacations (on 3 separate occasions) my Grandparents traveled with me across country from the New Jersey Shore to the California Coast. We would stop at every historical museum and curiosity shop plotted along our path. Little did I know from the age of 5, that I was actually taking in all of the details of those very special places. The furniture, the history, the log cabins or Victorian homes and all of the pieces that made up life of those times. As a teenager growing up in the 70’s, my sense of adventure had me traveling all over the California Coast. By the age of 16 I could take you to every thrift shop and antique store from Sonoma to Los Angeles. After raising 4 beautiful children, being an executive and dedicating much time to humanitarian activities, education reform, drug reform and other life and family improvement endeavors, I now take great pleasure in creating a beautiful environment for others. I’ve taken my knowledge of history, sense of adventure, love for travel and compulsion to shop and turned into a Business. It is truly my reward.
