My grandmother was an antique dealer and as a child I spent my Saturdays rummaging through every garage sale, estate sale, and flea market around. Needless to say, I developed an extreme appreciation for the past and all its treasures. When other girls hung their New Kids posters above their beds, I hung my Elvis & Marilyn Monroe ones. Look up eclectic in the dictionary, and I am positive you'll find my picture. None of my furniture matches in the traditional sense of the term, and I love it. For as long as I can remember, family and friends have said they are most comfortable in my home...I love that too! My grandmother passed almost 15 years ago, and I still miss her every single day. I collect an eclectic mix of things...old ginger spice tins (a collection my Grandmother started for me when I was 9...I'll refrain from stating how long ago that was), Aynsley cups & saucers, Hollywood memorabilia, Henry Clive tins, Canco tins (I LOVE old tins), and unusual paper ephemera.
