From Passion to Profession: How It All Began

My love for vintage decor started with decorating my own home, but it quickly turned into something bigger. What began as a personal hobby—thrifting for unique finds—soon became a business when friends started asking me to hunt for pieces on their behalf. As I traveled, I started seeking out thrift stores, antique shops, and flea markets, discovering that each city held its own hidden gems. Over time, I expanded my search, traveling to find hidden treasures and uncover their stories. After losing my social media account to a hack, I decided to build a dedicated space where vintage lovers could explore, request, and shop for items securely. Now, every find is documented, and even items that don’t go up for sale are shared as part of a historical archive. Marie Can Paint is more than a store—it’s a curated journey through time, bringing history into your home.
