About Us

Hello, dear reader!

If you’re reading this, you probably want to know exactly who Buy Me Love is, right?

Vintage Karyn

Vintage Chelsea

We’re Karyn and Chelsea, a mother/daughter team with a bunch of years combined experience in the arts/crafts/vintage & antique business. We’re working hard to provide quality, affordable and eco-friendly vintage, and we’re making clothing, accessories, jewelry, and gifts for our loyal and awesome customers. One of our very favorite things is a good custom order. Collaborating with people and making their visions come to life is magical and so much fun!

On a personal note, we love each other a lot. 

Bios:

Karyn has been creative and a hard worker all her life, and as a single mom, she often worked multiple jobs to support her family, while somehow still spending lots of quality time with them. She loves her rescued Yorkie, Jewel, horror movies, Judge Judy, fruit pops, and helping out the local animal shelter by promoting furbabies in need of forever homes.

Chelsea lives with her handsome redheaded husband, Tom, in an on-campus Christian mission at a local university. She loves watching sci-fi, fantasy, and thriller/action movies and TV shows with him and her beloved brother in law, because they’re all big geeks, and she also loves writing, drawing, organizing, and anything with cheese on it.

Karyn and Chelsea share many interests (because they’re nearly carbon copies of each other,) like singing, vintage & antiques, thrift shopping, shiny and sparkly things, upcycling, weird beauty, reading, and they even both have epilepsy and fibromyalgia, so they are both passionate about spreading awareness and empathy when it comes to invisible illnesses. Karyn, however, does not share Chelsea’s interest in brussels sprouts.

My very fancy blog mission statement: In this blog, I (Chelsea) will post about our favorite Etsy artists, giveaways, updates on our business, our lives, and tips and tricks of the entreprenurial and crafty trade. You (the reader) can respond to us with your thoughts, suggestions, or even just a friendly “hello.” Really – don’t hesitate to send us a message, an email, a convo, a homing pigeon – we’re very friendly, and we’ll get back to you as quickly as we can!  For Facebook fun, follow us here: http://facebook.com/buymelove

This is our life, our love, in blog form.

Share the Love!
