A Curator Chat With Terri

Terri is one of our amazing curators! Her passion for vintage is truly inspiring, and we love having her at The FM. She visits us just about every week to spruce up her booth with new finds and displays.

In this Q&A, Terri talks about her own decor style, her tips for secondhand shopping, and more!

An example in her home: a comfy reading spot. The wood panels are from the church Terri was baptized in, the oil painting came from her dad's workshop, and the floor lamp is a vintage find.

How would you describe your decor style?

Comfy with a dash of vintage and a sprinkle of family heirlooms.
