Welcome! Discover the Art of Sustainability by Acquiring Preloved Treasures!
About Us
VMC Curations is a fully curated shop of unique pre-owned items launched by Vanessa Christensen and Erin Rosen (friends for 30 years). Vanessa's eclectic taste in home decor and her incredible eye for design, mixing old and new, spurred her and her partner to open a shop that incorporates their environmental goals by recycling and reusing with the intention of bringing lovely things back to life which can be used in various new ways in your home. An exquisite crystal bowl can be used for Qtips or cotton balls in your bathroom, an elegant tray can be used for your keys by your front door, or as a beautiful plant saucer.
Their goal is to rehome as many of these fantastic found treasures because they deserve to be cherished again. And why not bring elegance back!
We are a Women-Owned and operated business.
THE TEAM
Vanessa Christensen grew up in a world of home decor and design in her parents Scandinavian imports store. She eventually landed at Vidal Sassoon Academy in Los Angeles where she became a hair stylist working in elite salons. After raising two boys (she was famous for making the most amazing ebelskievers from preschool on...), and having always been a collector of all the interesting Scandinavian artisans (she loves blue, white, and Royal Copenhagen!), she began began finding and collecting unique beautiful pieces as a creative outlet for her passion of making Hygge boxes as gifts - housewarming, birthdays, congratulations, anniversaries or just because. Loving the process, the thought involved, and imagining what would bring the most joy and Hygge to her family and friends is a large part of who Vanessa is. With the encouragement of her father, Tony, she wanted to share this with others. Because, yes! We could all use more Danish Hygge in our lives!
Erin Rosen has the same love of design, vintage goods, and great food as Vanessa and it was this mutual obsession that brought them together to start VMC Curations. She is also the mom of two young men and since they are pretty much launched, she was ready to launch VMC as another creative endeavor. A writer, first and foremost, she has always had a passion for telling stories and every one of these pieces they've found have their own stories to tell!
