7 Questions with Kathi Mundigler of All Things White
1. Where do you live? I live in Racine, WI with my husband Dave. I have lived in WI my entire life and in this house for 31 years.
2. What
are you obsessed with lately? Figuring out how to organize my house.
The vintage business has started to take over and our home is not
especially large. We recently did our first large show- Junk Bonanza-
and pretty much dropped everything in our small basement and garage when
we got back. Now all of that cleaning out and organizing I was going to
do "after Junk" is my reality. And on a more fun note drinking
coffee and baking, they both make me happy. And are an excuse to
procrastinate on the organizing.
3. Coffee or tea? I guess I just covered that- strong coffee with flavored creamer.
4. What
is your favorite thing about being on Etsy? There are so many things I
like it is hard to pick. The sense of community and the support of
fellow teamies and etsians. And the amazing venue we all for our
businesses, I would not have been doing this without Etsy.
5. What is your least favorite thing about being on Etsy? Accounting.
6. What
are you afraid of? Mice and other rodents. They completely freak me
out. Just had a little shiver even thinking about them.
Care to share a photo of you when you were little?
7. Who are you in love with? My husband Dave! We met
in college at UW-Madison and have been together ever since. And of
course my daughters Annie (thedancingwren) and Allison
(elizabethwrenvintage) and my Mom. I am blessed with a wonderful
extended family too.
Kathi ... so nice to meet you all! Racine is just a hop, skip and a jump from me here in Elgin, IL!

ReplyDeleteI shoulda guessed you were from midwest! What a wonderful family you have and like my family so many of us on Etsy every day.. a wonderful way to keep in touch as well. A convo here and there. And of course the ETsy family. I am so happy I came here and read your post. I lived in Colfax one winter so I know your cold.. stay warm and cozy and look out for mice. My daughter Rita(animalgam and wolfhouse on etsy)just moved into her own apt. for college and she is alone so she got 2 rats and now a porcupine.. I too am afraid of rodents so going there is tricky! I wish you well on the coming season!! Marianne
Lovin this blog! Thank you DancingWren for sending it my way!
