Business InformationHistory/background
I own and operate Moon River Vintage, a registered Illinois business, and as my husband would tell it, it is completely financed by him. He’s a funny guy, but there’s some truth to what he says. I am completely possessed when it comes to vintage! And my grand-daughter Celeste is slowly moving to the dark side with grandma! She loves to come over and try on the hats and jewelry. Just what I did with my own grandmother & aunts when I was her age, which is when my love affair with vintage began. I have always loved classic movie fashion and yearned to look as beautiful and well dressed as the Hollywood stars of yore. Then while helping to plan a 1940’s style benefit for IL military families I discovered eBay and all it had to offer. Next thing you know I’ve got three full closets. Now the closets have grown into rooms & that's when I decided to turn it into a business. Makes everybody happy. I still get to be involved with vintage & hubby thinks I’m making the effort to clear it all out.
