Meet Auntie TE!
Twenty five years ago, Theresa decided there had to be a way to sell really cute, barely used clothing and accessories in a boutique-style setting, without it looking like a thrift store. She opened her first shop,
Three Friends Limited,
with two other friends in Northern Virginia in 1987.
However, Theresa, aka "Auntie TE", envisioned bigger and better things. She opened Auntie TE's, her solo venture, in 1991 in Annandale, VA. After many successful years, Theresa lugged the entire contents of her store to Ravensworth Shopping Center in Springfield in 1997.
Auntie TE's has moved back to Annandale in the Bradlick Shopping Center and has expanded with new items; including funky jewelry, sophisticated handbags, shabby chic hand-painted furniture, among other fabulous things at shockingly low prices. She makes regular shopping trips to New York City for the newest trends. Stop by and check us out! We're sure you'll find something really great...and at a bargain!
Auntie TE's is proud to be celebrating our 25 YEAR Anniversary next year. We are one of the oldest consignment stores around and don't plan on leaving anytime soon! Stop in and you'll see why.....
Theresa Cizmar currently lives with her husband, Pete, and her dogs, Benny, Hatch, Angel, Annie and Sydney. You can regularly see her daughter, Kerry, in the store while her youngest daughter, Melissa, lives in LA. Her son, Darian, and his family live in Richmond, VA. She has three
