Congratulations to Wilton resident and local business owner Jennifer Angerame on Southern Yankee's 18th anniversary! Jennifer's dedication to her community and to her quality handmade products are exemplary!
With humble beginnings as a card business, operating out of small apartment in NYC, Southern Yankee has become a way of life and a "young" fashionable destination.
Jennifer reflects on how it all began...
It all started in the corner of our tiny apartment on in NYC -- some envelopes and card stock for our handmade Christmas cards and a small collection of vintage handkerchiefs. The rest, as they say, is history!
Our family has grown and so has my little kitchen table business, SouthernYankee. The greeting cards that I started with have taken a back seat, and the vintage lines and monogramming are now driving the bus. Thank you for always supporting me and my handmade dreams.
Congratulations Jennifer! Here's looking at you, kid!
