Dianne, a.k.a. “The Kitschy Collector” lives in a home decorated in
“cottage style of unknown origin” and is working very hard to
“re-purpose” (cottage jargon for re-cycle) all the junk her kids brought
home from college. When she is not cleaning out cluttered rooms and
closets or hunting for more kitschy “stuff” , she can be found at her
computer working on books about “hot” collectibles and other subjects
that capture her attention. Her first book,
Hot Kitchen & Home Collectibles of the 30s, 40s, 50s, was very well
received and convinced her that she was up for another challenge. Her
second book,
Hot Cottage Collectibles for Vintage Style Homes also published by
Collectorbooks.com was just released (Fall 08). The Kitschy Collector is
about to start a third book project so stay tuned.
Dianne, an author, mixed-media artist and psychotherapist has been
collecting and selling kitchen and cottage collectibles in Connecticut
for nearly three decades. Her number one pastime is travelling around
her home state and beyond, visiting her favorite antique shops,
galleries and eateries.
You can find Dianne's retro and cottage collectibles for purchase at
her shoppe
"Kitsch-N-Stuff" which is part of
The Collinsville Antiques Company of New Hartord, CT., a 22,000
square feet antique emporium with an in-house retro cafe.If you would
