Personal bio:
I am an Interior Designer with a passion for sewing and chalk painting furniture. My Design Aesthetic is very elegant, so my furniture pieces are not regular like many other painters. Mine are unique because of my technique of paint and I am known for my crystal knobs and handles. It can transform an ugly garage sale find to something beautiful.I have a passion for sewing as well, check out ,my web site on Etsy.

When I am doing someones home, I love to incorporate either a furniture piece of mine, or use there pieces and transform them into something amazing for there space.
How did you start your business & why? I started my business 4 years ago, I love Interior Design, it allows me to create and to be completely creative.
How would you best describe your style and the items you sell?
My furniture will stand out from the crowd, you will see many pieces with my own custom paint. They will be very elegant and can work in anyones home. I have tons of furniture for Sept. JITT, including multiple dressers by Ethan Allen, Thomasville. I have dining tables and multiple matching chairs, I also am bringing pieces that we can pick your own color for me to paint.
I bring lots of little girls dresses with me.. I love making them, I only use Designer cotton fabric, I always line the dresses with the same fabric. They are very high quality and if you don’t see your size, I can make you a custom dress and either ship it or deliver it for you.
When was your first Junk in the Trunk Vintage Market? I started JITT three years ago, and LOVE every minute of it, Its the only show I do because I am so busy with new clients all the time, its the only one i will bother to make time for. Its an amazing show these girls put on.
And what is your favorite part about the event? Or a favorite memory? My favorite thing about the event is the hands on experience… to meet such amazing wonderful people who are looking for some design help. The group that puts the event on is amazing, they really care about there vendors, and do anything to accommodate you.
Wow, we are too excited to see what awesome items you bring to our September market Mari! Good luck!
