Vintage Home

Meet my beautiful mother, Colleen. Not only is she a wonderful, loving, and giving mom, 

she's an incredibly talented interior decorator and creative extraordinaire! 
She is the creator and owner of Vintage Home and has been involved in many magazine publications, 
including House & Home and O Magazine. 
She has a booth at the Fort Langley Antique Mall, and has been involved in many events,
including the Fieldstone Vintage Market. I went to the Fieldstone Vintage Christmas Market today, 
and was able to take some pictures of her lovely booth! Visit her page here if you're interested. 
She's amazing at what she does! So proud of you mom! Thanks for the abundance of furniture 
and decor you and Dad have blessed our home with!
It wouldn't look as great as it does without your special touch. I love you!

Thanks to Shelley, my sidekick, I couldn't do it without you!
and thanks to Bob Maren & Dustin for all your help & support!
& 
a huge t h a n k s to Kelly for these wonderful pictures & kind words!

    Your daughter is a very talented photographer and an amazing girl to write such a lovely post about her mother. How special!!! I'm so sad I wasn't able to make it to the market. Looks like another amazing day.
