Oak Park Shop Owner Busy Building up Bee
Oak Park, IL – Something new is abuzz in east Oak Park: Bee Home and Garden, 128 Chicago Ave.
The shop, a first foray into retail sales by life-long village resident Colleen Maia, presents new and vintage china, glassware, decorative objects, jewelry and a smattering of furniture.
“It’s a collection of everything I find pretty,” said Maia, who opened Bee at the end of September and is still building an inventory of pieces she collects at venues such as estate sales and auctions.
