About

For Tom Kiebzak and Teri Sullivan, opening MKE Plants & Vintage Goods has been the perfect way to showcase the plants and treasures they have sought out for years. The two share a passion for finding special items at estate sales, antique stores and flea markets, and giving them new life.

Their store is a carefully curated and ever-changing selection of these items, from mid-century modern chairs and tables to retro bar carts, with loads of accessories to round out the look. Scattered throughout are unusual plants of all sizes — some just tiny seedlings and others mature, state- ment-making house plants, often potted in unusual vessels.


Regarding the vintage items they discover, Sullivan says, “I think a lot about the people who first owned these pieces. In letting someone else enjoy them today, we get the chance to honor their history.”
