ABOUT FOUND

The summer of 2012 was full of surprises! Ryan changed jobs and Laci lost hers. To make ends meet, Laci started picking up yard sale furniture and flipping it for a small profit. In 2013, while selling these pieces on FB, someone took notice and asked if she would be interested in opening a small shop. 2 weeks later, The Vintage Chandelier was born!

TVC encountered lots of ups and downs and in 2016, Laci made the decision that if she didn’t grow, she would never survive in that little bitty shop! Since she knew she had something to offer to others, she decided to change the name and give other makers a space to create and call their own. She decided on a name and found the perfect location just down the street from her original shop! Found Vintage Market opened its doors in July 2016 and has been growing ever since! Our current store is a mix of new and vintage set in a 6,000 sq ft sales floor, a 2,000 sq ft workshop and 4,000 sq ft of backstock. What a big difference from the original 1200 sq ft shop!

 

ABOUT EARL & GRAY

March 2020, just as the world was shutting down, Laci (owner of Found Vintage Market and the red headed step child to Earl and Gray) asked Abbie to open a 2nd location. Abbie agreed, recognizing how much Laci needed her to continue. “It was sad how much she begged. Awkward even,” said Niles while being interviewed in the back of an undisclosed speakeasy. “You could see how desperate she was and I am a sucker for desperation”, Niles also said while sipping on her Shirley Temple. 

Fast forward to today. Earl and Gray is a driving force in the home decor community. Services include: in store consultations so we can take over as we watch you make mis matched selections; in home consultations so we can judge your home and prior decor decisions and working ourselves to death daily only to be given negative reviews because our credit card machine malfunctioned.
