RBGA Small Business of the Month - June 2020

If you’re looking for a mortgage banker with years of experience and expertise in both the big picture and minutiae of home loans, you’ve found it all in Deb. Being in the industry since 1979, she’s specialized in about every phase of the home loan process, so her education isn’t one-dimensional. Because of this, she puts emphasis on passing knowledge to her clients about what’s going to happen at each step and prepare them for what’s coming in the next 30 or so years with their home loan. She understands that her clients often need flexibility with their loan terms, so her favorite program is the FHA loan program, which works with differing credit scores and less stringent terms.

Owned by Melissa Bland, who became an Alton transplant in 2018, Honeybee Vintage offers vintage, antiques, home décor, gifts and upscale resale. “We are a collective of antique lovers in one unique space, with new arrivals every week,” Bland explained

Customer favorites include painted furniture, quilts, fruit jars, art pottery, vintage clothing, jewelry, art, embroidered linens, architectural pieces, and garden decor

“We love the cottage look, with an affinity for English and French antiques, but love to mix in pieces that speak to the heart of the Midwest, mid-century modern pieces, and upcycled treasures. We also offer a line of furniture paint, and tons of creative inspiration for your home. Also, you don't want to miss our ‘bee-tique’ of new and upscale resale clothing for children,” Bland added.      

The Air Force brought the Bland family to the area, but Bland and her family have decided to stay, due to the “unique charm and historic character of Alton,” as Bland noted. “We fell in love with our house first, but quickly returned the embrace of our Middletown neighborhood and have enjoyed putting down roots in Alton after almost 30 years of military life.”
