Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
We opened our doors on September 6, 2013, so about 4.5 years.
What is your primary product or service?
Vintage and repurposed furniture and home decor.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I was/am an interior designer who became interested in this style of decorating because very often my clients wanted to use some existing pieces, but they often were either a little worse for wear or outdated. I found with a little creativity and love, updating older pieces was a fun and fulfilling process.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
We were the original vintage furniture and home decor store in Montgomery County Maryland, and we continue to provide exceptional products at remarkably reasonable prices.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
We have just one location for now. However, we own a large lot with plenty of room to add additional buildings, which is something we are seriously looking at doing in the future.
