Hey there, Junkin’ Buddies! I’m Stacy Verdick Case, and I’m on a mission to help you live your best life without breaking the bank. You see, I’m incredibly passionate about preserving the stories behind worn treasures. When something shows its age, I believe it’s a chance for a new beginning rather than an end. With a sprinkle of love, a dash of repair, and a hearty dose of imagination, I bring new life to furniture pieces that deserve a second chance.
I wear many hats in this journey of creativity and discovery. You might know me as the mastermind behind the Award winning Catherine O’Brien Series. a testament to the twists and turns my life has taken. I’m a journalist and I’ve hosted not one but two podcasts. I’ve had the honor of interviewing best-selling authors, business owners, and interesting people from around the globe, uncovering tales as captivating as the pieces I restore.
I’m committed to sustainability as you can tell by my whimsical tagline, “Re-love, Re-imagine, Restore, Reuse, Relax,” which defines my approach. Armed with a YouTube channel titled “Junkin’ with Stacy,” I’m not just a restorer, but also a passionate educator who shares my wisdom with fellow enthusiasts. I’ve been featured on the pages and screens of renowned media outlets, from Woman’s World and Martha Stewart magazine online to the Today Show and beyond.
Born in Minnesota and raised as an Army brat, I’ve journeyed across various places, but my heart always found its way back to Minnesota. It’s here that I’ve chosen to set my roots as a wife, mom, author, blogger, and YouTuber. And now, I’ve embraced a new endeavor that marries my passion for storytelling with my knack for restoration. As the creative force behind Peony Lane Designs, I breathe new life into furniture, giving it a fresh purpose, while offering these pieces and vintage treasures in my shop and on Etsy.
My journey is a tapestry woven with words, creativity, and a touch of whimsy. From inked pages to revitalized furniture, my journey isn’t just about restoring furniture; it’s about revitalizing stories and reminding us to cherish the charm of yesteryears.
