Additional Information
I have had a life-long love affair with the superior quality of antiques and vintage items. My grandfather owned an antique shop, my mother has worked in antique shops and has been a vendor at countless antique and flea markets in Chicago and the surrounding area- I have absorbed much information along the way! In my spare time I frame vintage nudes and antique magazine pages in age-relevant frames only. I also have a keen interest in shadowboxing nature- bark, birds eggs, bird and bug nests, butterflies, etc.
