A Passion for Design and the Language of Flowers:
Mere words can not describe the beauty of this gorgeous cake box. I absolutely love
it and it’s going to look stunning with my “Candy Shop” display. Thank you for
making such a gorgeous beauty for me! Testimonial from an online customer

Roseville, MN – Design has come naturally to Susan Cudahy of Vintage Charm. Her life
has been filled with love, laughter, family and good friends. “I remember listening to
stories of how Mom and Dad worked together building our first home in Chippewa
Falls, Wisconsin. As a child I watched my Grandmother, Aunts and my Mother around
Grandma’s old oak dining room table. I’d hear them laughing as they lay out the material
and pattern for a pretty dress. They’d sit at the table, knitting needles in hand; making
those warm winter mittens we each received every year for Christmas. As a child music
filled the rooms in our home. I remember Mom teaching us how to dance on beautifully
polished oak floors in our living room. My love for God, family, friends and a romantic
home…were instilled in me from the wonderful creative women and men in my family”.

As a child Susan designed gift cards for all occasions. Later she designed floral and
wedding arrangements. Family and friends encouraged her to pursue her passion for art
which you see today, twenty-five years later in her designs of floral art and fresh
flowers. “I’d have to say my first designs were flowers picked from my Grandmothers
beautiful garden. Every time we’d visit, she’d grab her old garden gloves, fill her
galvanized bucket with water, and her and I would go out and pick the most beautifully,
fragrant flowers. We’d place them in milk bottles filled with water, and set our floral
picks for centerpieces on the dinning room table and around the house. Her garden was
packed full of sweet peas, peonies, roses, gladiolas, dahlia’s, snowballs and pansies.
You’ll find many of my Grandmothers favorite flowers in my designs”. Susan continues
her education in the floral industry at Koehler and Dramm's Institute of Floristry.

In 2004 Vintage Charm was created in celebration of family, friendships and all those
occasions that are endearingly feminine. Weddings, Showers, and Tea Parties! Susan
designs and photographs many of the products you see on her website. She also works
together with other artisans that have woven the loveliness of the old and new with the
charm of days gone by. Passionate, classic visions have been hand-crafted and designed
especially with ‘you’ in mind. Making many of her accessories and gifts heirloom
keepsakes made right here in the USA.

What makes Vintage Charm so unique? Susan’s designs are created by using the meaning
of color and expressed in the Victorian Art of The Language of Flowers. Much time has
been dedicated to each step of the creative process. Gifts are embellished using hand
crafted, vintage and current styles of silk flowers as well as china, lace and vintage
jewelry when available. Susan offers gift giving with a touch of elegance and that
element of surprise, gift giving with a message! Vintage Charm is an online gift boutique
offering floral art, hand-painted, hand designed and hand detailed porcelain china, and
accessories for weddings, showers and tea parties.

Susan credits her online boutique success to networking with other women in small
business. “I have been blessed to have a wonderful husband, family and great friends that
are very supportive and have encouraged me to pursue my dreams. There are many
unexplored roads for us to travel. My hope is that one of those roads traveled…will
keep leading you back to Vintage Charm!”
