Thank you for taking a moment to learn about me! My name is Jennifer, and I have been married to my best friend, Adam, for 10 wonderful years. We share our beautiful home with our two "babies", Skylar and Chloe - they're cats, but don't tell them that! Born and raised here in Southern California, I've lived here practically my whole life, and I love living here. We're close to the beach, near the mountains, and very close to lots of great antique stores!
My passion for unique home decor and all things romantic are truly the essence of who I am. It's the look of faded elegance and timeworn antiques that makes it feel like home. The other love in my life is antiquing. Nothing quite like an early morning treasure hunt to start off your day!
This is a video slide show tour of my home. Just click on "play" and enjoy. And if you would like to see more, I featured my home as a Cottage of the Month in October 2006.
Here at The Old Painted Cottage, I am pleased to offer romantic cottage decor that embodies the comforts and casual elegance of a beautiful and relaxing home. Specializing in Shabby Chic, Romantic, Country French and Beach Cottage decor, you're sure to find that special item here.
I offer many different categories for you to shop from, all embracing the beautiful things we love to surround ourselves with, such as cottage painted furniture, flea market finds, antiques, pillows and textiles, unique garden pieces, vintage lighting, and old architectural finds. I think you will be pleased with my ever changing offering of items to choose from.
It is my goal to continually strive to bring you all sorts of unique treasures and lovely things to beautify your homes and gardens. Throughout the year, I take several wonderful buying trips and I look forward to sharing my antique finds with you!
