Bonjour & Welcome Friends!

I want to thank you for taking the time to drop by my French inspired boutique!

Now let me introduce myself…my name is Regina and I’m a full time Dental Hygienist, curator, seamstress, and founder of Chic Peony Boutique, LLC (formerly Scrub Caps, Etc. LLC). My handmade items are custom and made here in quaint Connecticut, the heart of New England.

My crafting days stem from my childhood in Minnesota. My Grandma was very creative and taught me how to sew. I would enjoy our trips to the fabric store where we would sit and browse the pattern books looking for something for my Grandma to make me. My Dad was also crafty, he taught me how to do bead work on a loom. I still enjoy beading and am excited to add more of this to my shop.

Sewing continued to surface in my life over the years. While in high school I worked in a tailor shop. This experience inspired me to want to design. Although my dream was delayed, I never lost my crafting skills. For my wedding, I opted to make my bridesmaid’s dresses because I had a particular vision on how the dresses would look. About five years later I was blessed with two daughters. I wanted to be the one to introduce sewing to my daughters, so I helped them create bags of their own while in elementary school.  To this day they use the skills I helped them gain at a young age.

I’ve most certainly been blessed with a hard-working, loving husband of over twenty-five years. Our lives have been centered around our two lovely daughters who are both in college and are our everything. I’m sure all you parents can relate!

I rediscovered my love of sewing once again during the Covid-19 pandemic when I began making masks for our local hospital. What started as a little side hustle has evolved into a little girls dream come true!

It’s my hope that my love shines through in each of my creations. In addition to my handmade items, I’m overjoyed to bring many lovely, curated retail items from other small businesses to my boutique.  After all it’s about community over competition, isn’t it?

Warmest Wishes,

Regina…xo
