So Can I
The So Can I podcast is a place that inspires, motivates, and encourages women to step out in faith, follow the dreams that have always been on their hearts, and have a little fun while doing it. Each week, Lauren will talk with different women who do the unexpected and think outside of the box. We cover it all: the good, the bad, the beginning, the how, the why, and most importantly, the journey. You will leave each episode thinking, “If she can do it, So Can I."

Creating Custom Tableware with Amanda Gaudelet
Today I am joined by Amanda Gaudelet. Amanda has always been drawn to heirloom elements, such as glassware, cutlery, teacups, and linens. Her passion for blending these vintage elements with those that are new is where her appreciation for setting a table was born. Antiquing from Greenwich to Palm Beach, and Pennsylvania to Paris, Amanda is always on the hunt for heirloom treasures. With a professional past in the hospitality industry, and being married to not only a restaurateur but a classically trained French Chef, Amanda has an innate desire to set a table and entertain at home. After sourcing vintage wares and designing custom ceramic wares for a number of restaurant projects, the idea to create custom, bespoke tableware for the home was born.
In this episode, Amanda and I talked about her career in the restaurant industry, why she started her business, how she sources and designs the items in her product lines, tips for antique shopping, and so much more!
