Laura is a life-long vintage lover, a wife and mother of two, a violinist and an outdoor enthusiast. Before growing her vintage business online and in local small businesses, Laura worked for The McCourt’s Music Group from 2004-2020. Laura enjoyed working with the local school music programs, helping children learn to play instruments and watching families grow musically together.

After having her second child, Laura’s desire to share her love of vintage and secondhand finds grew. Ironside Vintage began on Instagram in February of 2020. A year later, she expanded to online sales and as a vendor in local stores.

After opening The Rabbit Hole Vintage & Handmade shop in Waterford, MI in the Spring of 2023 with Marna & Heather, Laura looked towards expanding her design services. Since then, she has worked with her clients to bring their style to life and offer design solutions to their home.

Laura believes in creating spaces that are both beautiful to look at and exciting to live in. Mixing function and form are her specialties. Laura especially loves to work with your family heirlooms, ensuring that your family history is highlighted and cared for. A cozy, moody, maximalist room is on the top of Laura’s style list. Her favorite items to curate are mid-century lamps, Americana folk art, carved wood details, vintage floral and portrait art, brass anything and character-filled vintage rugs.

You can shop Laura’s vintage collection under Ironside Vintage located inside The Rabbit Hole in Waterford, MI.
