Hi, I’m Kathy. I help vintage collectors and creative entrepreneurs source beautifully, curate collections and build a business with soul.
Whether you’re dreaming of scouring brocantes in the French countryside or finally turning your vintage side-hustle into something sustainable (and joy-filled), you’re in the right place. At Atelier Chatelaine, we offer immersive experiences, expert guidance and practical tools for sourcing vintage with confidence—and building a business that feels like home.
✦ The Un-Retreat
A 5–6 day vintage sourcing experience in France for collectors, designers and vintage entrepreneurs. Think of it as your brocante dream come true without the fluff. We skip the influencer photo ops and get straight to the good stuff: real markets, real buying, real creative reconnection. Oh, and a healthy dose of France, great croissants and all!
✦ Personalized Buying Trips
Looking for something completely tailored? These buying trips are custom-built around your goals, whether you're shopping for your business, a project or yourself. I handle the scouting, planning and logistics, you show up and shop like a local.
✦ Coaching & Strategy for Vintage Businesses
From building your brand to curating collections that sell, my 1:1 coaching is designed for vintage business owners who want clarity, confidence and strategy that works in the real world, not just on paper.
You can book a one time, deep dive session through Know What I Know, or commit to longer-term transformation with a 3 month personalized coaching package.
✦ Digital Guides & Tools
My downloadable guides are like having a vintage insider in your back pocket. Whether you're planning your first trip to France or building out your sourcing calendar, these easy-to-use resources are crafted with care, personality and zero overwhelm.
