About

Hi, I'm Michelle, the heart and hands behind Michelle's Variety Shop. My journey into the world of vintage treasures began with going to sales with my Dad when I was a little girl. Adding handmade items over the years has just happened as I strive to expand my business. Every handmade piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, using high-quality materials and unique techniques. For my vintage finds, I hunt for items with stories and character, ensuring they bring joy and nostalgia to their new homes.

I offer a diverse range of products, from whimsical car coasters and charming coffee mugs to unique garden flags, elegant glass cutting boards, and a variety of vintage finds. Each item is a testament to my commitment to quality and originality. From vintage books to vintage dishes and a few things in between, my Dad, an avid collector, inspired my love for variety. I can remember tagging along to many sales and auctions with him. Even though my Dad is gone now, I still can't pass by a sale without stopping. In all those early morning trips to sales, my Dad taught me the value of vintage items and how important it is to keep our history alive. Now I'm always on the lookout for vintage items I can share with others who also want to hold on to a piece of history, along with many non-vintage items that strike a chord with me.

From one of my favorite movies, "My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys":
"What are you doing up there?"
"Just trying to stay above the crowd."
"What are you doing down there?"
"Just trying to get by without shoving."

That pretty much explains my life. I'm just trying to make a living and support my family. You never know what new idea I'll have to share with you. Thanks for stopping by! Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have. Pull up a chair, get comfy, and take your time looking around. I hope you find something special that brings a smile to your face.
