Meet the Genzink family! I met Lauren officially about a year ago. She grew up in Chicago too and went to the same high school as Doug (small world, always). It was great to chat with someone who loves everything from antiquing to fashion as much as I do.

There’s little that brings me joy like a good market. The Fulton Street Farmer’s Market in Grand Rapids is one of my favorites. They always have a great mix of unique vendors from local farms to small businesses.

I think that one of the reasons that I like going antiquing is that it feels like a treasure hunt. You never know what you might find while you’re ‘in the wild.’ That and there’s always a good dose of nostalgia to go along with your search like the lamp that you had in your house growing up or the set of dishes that everyone’s Grandmother seemed to have.

Every May in Holland, Michigan, tulips arrive and the city feels extra alive. There’s sweeping of the streets, endless rows of brightly colored flowers dancing in the wind, and delicious Dutch food to enjoy.
