Growing up in Central Pennsylvania, my appreciation for vintage style and fabric began at an early age.  The small town we lived in had O.R. Laney's 5 & 10 and our favorite place to buy fabric was (and still is) Verna's Fabric Shop.  

The tin ceilings, hardwood floors, and candy counters of O.R. Laney's were a magical place for me as a child.  My fondest memory is of Mrs. Hassinger weighing my candy corn -- she had the prettiest white hair. 

Going to Verna's was always very special.  I can remember seeing the clotheslines filled with dresses -- there were 17 children in their family afterall!  With a horse and buggy hitched outside, inside you'll find cottons in a rainbow of colors, bonnets, wooden toys, & suspenders for the boys.  The Whimsy Cottage is my way of bringing these places to you -- minus the horses.
