Founder of Antiques on Creek, Leslie Ibbotson has put her pride and passion into creating this charming antiques boutique in the heart of Virgil, the hometown she was born and raised in.
It was the inspiration from her father, Svend Mikkelsen, a master Danish carpenter, and her mother, Marjorie, a quilter and artist at heart, that drove Leslie to become so passionate for antiques.
Growing up, Leslie spent Saturday mornings with her father going to the local dump where she and her siblings were allowed to choose something to recycle. She found a lot of satisfaction working alongside her father recreating and restoring furniture and collectibles. Her very first antique that she reupholstered and sold was a Bergère Chair which she discovered at a local yard sale. Her mother shared her love for fabrics and taught her how to sew. It was from that point on that Leslie had her heart set on the world of antiquing and reupholstering.
Inevitably this launched her career as an antiques dealer and her own business selling a variety of collectibles and antiques through multiple venues. Featuring a variety of items including, furniture, home decor, vintage fabrics, dishes, glassware, jewelry and more. She has a keen eye for detecting marvelous treasures and forgotten objects and repairs, restores or reinvents collectible pieces.
Her desire to return to her roots in Virgil and open an antiques shop has finally happened. Here she shares her love of all things old and offers a place for locals and tourists to gather and share in their love of history, and antiques.
