The Vintage Lady

>
Welcome. I am so glad that you stopped by. I am going to visit my friend, Cathy, who owns The Vintage Lady in Old Town Tustin. Come along with me and Bentley and we will visit her charming vintage shop and garden to see what she has been up to. Summer in Southern California is winding down and I wanted to visit her adorable garden one last time before she plants for fall.



Looks like Bentley has been patiently waiting for us.
Put on your walking shoes and off we go.






Her blue door is open and waiting for us to enter.



As we enter the front door we are greeted by a joyful quote painted on the wall.







Let's take a peek at some of her wonderful vintage treasurers.












Her shop is located in a tiny historical cottage and each room is painted a different color.










































Let's pour a cup of tea and visit Cathy's little garden in back of her cottage. She teaches " Make It & Take It " garden classes and her specialty - Mini Fairy Gardens and heirloom flowers.






























Cathy designs all of her special garden signs and has a local artist paint them for her. She takes custom orders for them.










The Vintage Lady is located at 434 El Camino Real, Tustin, CA 92780

You can visit Cathy at her new website http://thevintagelady.com/ and see more photos of her charming shop and garden on her flicker page. She also has a blog under construction.


I am so happy that you stopped by. I love to hear from you and sincerely appreciate that you have taken time to leave me a comment and follow my blog. If you have any questions or want to see me paint something special, please leave me a comment or send me an e-mail.


Now that fall is almost here, we will be painting lots of sunflowers, roosters, pumpkins and special FALL WELCOME signs with scare crows and fall flowers. We will bake pumpkin bread, plant fall flowers and visit shops decorated for fall and go on some fun road trips together.

Have a lovely week. Blessings, Erin
