special valentine conversation pieces...

February is the month for...

the sweet stuff
___________________

a time to exchange

colorful candies and thoughtful notes

to brighten a loved one's
Valentine's Day
. . .
and an opportunity to scatter a little
sweetness throughout the house...

stamped notecards tied with ribbon

painted message signs and hearts propped up in

unexpected places

a whimsical table centerpiece

ribbon and spools tucked away in
small corners...

heart-shaped cookie cutters...

...and baking dishes for kitchen displays

and even...
a warm, heartfelt welcome at the front door

Happy Valentine's Day

A little information about me...
Collecting and pairing old, architectural items and painted furniture pieces together has developed into one of my most favorite passions resulting in creative, fun displays reflective of my family's changing lifestyle and versatile enough to mix with current trends that can be transitioned from season to season and room to room. Old wooden boxes, rusty metal bins, distressed benches, vintage leather suitcases and farm tables all add character and infuse an inviting space with personality, warmth and style.

Initially focusing on a career within the meeting planning and hospitality industries, I decided after completing my M.B.A. to concentrate on establishing my own business one day incorporating my international experience and background. The rich history and architectural backdrops of Europe where my husband and I both grew up combined with our travels and family visits abroad with our two children influence and inspire me every day. With a keen interest in collecting vintage elements as well as continuously enjoying arranging and tweaking our home, I chose to pursue a new path into retail to further develop and explore the possibilities.

vintage maison & co. opened in October 2010 within the cottage, a sweet shop filled with well loved furnishings in downtown historic Leesburg, Virginia that I have enjoyed visiting the past few years and now have the incredible opportunity to officially be a part of with a team of talented women.

Enjoy!
