All About Me
Interests
What everyone should know about me
I love antiques and vintage stuff. The craftsmanship and beauty of the way things used to be made excites my artistic senses. I surround myself with these treasures, from my furniture to accessories and clothing.
Things I sell
Vintage almost everything. All hand chosen from upstate New York auctions and estate sales, and private New York City estate sales. If it speaks to me and is a GREAT BUY, you will see it here...jewelry, clothing, handbags, scarves, furs, games and boards, metal trucks and toys, sterling and plate, pens, pencils, inkwells, shoes, hats, compacts, pill boxes, perfume bottles, wallets, card cases, pocket watches, afghans and quilts, petit point, needlepoint, etc., etc.
Things I buy
Interesting. Signed and unsigned. If I think you will like it and it is priced well, I buy it. I shop almost every day. Many clients request I buy gifts and items for them. Some request I search out specific treasures.
Things I collect
My #1 passion is vintage, antique handbags...I have over 250 purses, compacts, some beaded, brocades, leather, skins, sterling, silver plate, and period from the 30's and 40's. Then comes vintage jewelry, handkerchiefs, gloves, hats, and, of course, clothing. I love reading old magazines, especiallly the advertisements. Vintage picture frames are all over my house with pictures of family, friends, and my cats. Antique kitchen utensils, most still functional, are in my kitchen drawers and displayed. I am always bidding on and buying glass cannister sets from Europe. Vintage animal cookie jars line the shelves in my apartment in the city. I use clear and acid etched glasses and dishes from the 30's to the 50's every day. I am a patsy for just about anything Victorian. Looking at the rich grain of oak, the majesty of walnut, beauty of brass with its original patina, the way old lamps light up a room and reflect off my collection of antique cut crystal all make me very happy.

Interests
Hobbies
Shopping, shopping, shopping. Buying. Selling and meeting great new people from all over the world. Reading. Being with my cats. Going on vacation with my friends and going to one new place a year with my husband. Helping others less fortunate than myself. Movies, plays, concerts. Listening to music, being able to blast the sound and sing along where no one can hear me. Dancing. Cooking. Entertaining small groups of friends. Hanging out...watching TV. And let's not forget...antiques.
Favorite Books
Favorite Movies
Anything with Cary Grant, Audrey Hepburn, Sean Connery, Clint Eastwood, Katharine Hepburn, Paul Newman, Robert Redford. And I am sure there are others that do not come to mind now.
Favorite Music/Bands
Big bands from yesteryear, 50's and 60's (I remember all the words...could never remember schoolwork as well), soft rock, oldies. Love songs where the words mean something to me. Love voices that sound like music. Barbra Streisand. And others I cannot think of now.
Favorite TV Shows
Law and Order, Dr. Phil, Oprah, CIS, Cold Case Files, What Not to Wear, Antique Road Show, Cash in the Attic, Criminal Mind, Deal or No Deal, dramas, comedy, musicals.
Pets
Used to be a dog person when I lived in the suburbs...and still love dogs. Now I have come to love my cats. They are fascinating and loving and warm and affectionate. And like the commercial says, I love how important they make me feel! Unconditional love is powerful and wonderful.
