About us...

Very Funny Vintage—where history meets hilarity! Based in both Washington, D.C., and Cincinnati, Ohio, this snarky little empire is the brainchild of Lauren Early (Chief Idea Wrangler) and Heidi Ellenberger (Chief Sales Slayer). Friends for nearly 40 years since their fateful meeting on a high school tennis court (apparently, the pro circuit was not ready for them), they share a lifelong passion for shenanigans and the firm belief that if you're not laughing, you're not living.

Their brand serves up laugh-out-loud greeting cards with a vintage twist and gifts that keep the laughs coming—think fragrant and funny candles, sassy tea towels, and cocktail napkins with more attitude than your Aunt Mildred after two martinis. Many of the vintage photos featured in their designs are actually their own family members, who, as it turns out, also had a pretty solid sense of humor. In a world that takes itself too seriously, Very Funny Vintage is here to bring the levity.
