The mother-daughter team of Annamarie and Brigid McAlpin has been serving the Chicagoland area since 1982.  We have designed and created a number of different products over the years such as hair accessories, hats and jackets.  Since 1995 we have designed vintage glass bead and crystal jewelry under the company name Windy City Jewelry.  In 2004 we formed an artist's group, Flower Girls Gifts, to provide local boutiques and galleries with an expanded selection of floral-themed gifts in addition to the jewelry.

Brigid is an eBay Silver PowerSeller and Trading Assistant and has been selling on eBay since 1999.  PowerSellers are eBay top sellers who sustain a consistent high volume of monthly sales and a high level of total Feedback -- with 98% or better positive rating by other eBay users. A Trading Assistant is an experienced eBay seller who will sell your items on eBay for a fee.  Her greatest areas of expertise are women's clothing, jewelry, antique furniture and collectibles, pottery and glass but she can and has sold just about everything on eBay.  For more information on eBay services, CLICK HERE.

We decided to combine the two concepts into one store, Brie's Gift Gallery, where we offer the work of an expanded group of artists in addition to vintage home accessories and small furniture pieces placed on consignment by Brigid's eBay clients.
