Mary McLaughlin

Mary McLaughlin is based out of Illinois and creates hand painted enamel boxes, porcelain trays and bone china. My favorite pieces are from her monogram collection.
 
This Monogram Porcelain Box can be customized in five different colors. I am torn between that and the Charleston Navy & White Box to have customized with my new married initials.
 
I love the idea of using this Charleston Rectangle Tray or the Charleston Scalloped Tray as a bedside catch-all.
 
The Maryland flag looks great lining the State Capitol Box.
 
There is a collection of New York City Boxes and I even saw one of the Central Park Boat House which is where JCW's sister tied the knot.
 
Mary also does custom commissions like these Annapolis Yacht Club Cufflinks.

"If you can dream it, Mary McLaughlin will work with you to create it!"

    This stuff is adorable!!! I think I like the monogram porcelain box better than the Charleston navy and white box...it's more simple.
