Meet Our Team
WELCOME TO FLIPPING AND STONES! WE WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE OURSELVES. OUR BUSINESS IS RUN BY THREE TEAM MEMBERS, ALEXA (THATS ME) GABRIEL AND MARCO. GABRIEL IS PASSIONATE ABOUT UP CYCLING FURNITURE. HE HAS CREATED MANY AMAZING FURNITURE PIECES THAT ASTOUND CUSTOMERS EVERYWHERE. HIS VISION AND DESIGNS ARE TRULY REMARKABLE.
MARCO IS OUR JEWELRY AND CRYSTAL EXPERT. HE CREATES MANY MARVELOUS JEWELRY PIECES FROM NECKLACES, BRACELETS, AND RINGS TO CUSTOM PENDANTS IN VARIOUS SHAPES. MARCO KNOWS ALL ABOUT THE PROPERTIES OF THE CRYSTALS SO MUCH SO, THAT I TEND TO BE CONVINCED HE KNOWS PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING. AND THEN THERE IS ME. MANY PEOPLE WONDER HOW I FIT INTO THE SCHEME OF THINGS AT THE STORE. I RUN THE BEHIND THE SCENES ASPECTS OF THE STORE.
I OVERSEE OUR SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS, MARKETING, THE ORDERING OF INVENTORY, WELL YOU GET THE IDEA. IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR FUSION MINERAL PAINT LINE THAT WE CARRY, WELL THEN I’M YOUR GIRL! TOGETHER WE MAKE UP FLIPPING AND STONES. THE THREE OF US DECIDED ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO TO TURN OUR PASSIONS INTO A BUSINESS AND OPEN UP OUR VERY OWN STORE. AFTER GABRIEL AND MARCO WERE SELECTED TO BE CONTESTANTS ON HGTV’S FLEA MARKET FLIP, WHERE THEY COMPETED AGAINST A VERY TALENTED TEAM FROM LONG ISLAND NY, THEY KNEW THIS WAS THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME, EVEN IF THEY DIDN'T WIN. ULTIMATELY GABE AND MARCO DID WIN, WHICH HONESTLY IS STILL SO EXCITING TO THINK ABOUT. WITH THEIR
WINNINGS, WE WERE ABLE TO BEGIN THE PROCESS OF OPENING OUR OWN BUSINESS.
AFTER THE SHOW, WE STARTED THE SEARCH FOR A STORE FRONT AND BEGAN OUR JOURNEY. YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING WHERE THE NAME FLIPPING AND STONES COMES FROM. OUR NAME STEMS FROM THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES WE OFFER. FLIPPING REPRESENTS THE FLIPPING OF FURNITURE AND THE STONES REPRESENTS THE JEWELRY. NOW WE DON’T STOP AT FURNITURE AND JEWELRY. WE ALSO OFFER HOME DECOR, WORKSHOPS AND OF COURSE FUSION MINERAL PAINT! WE ABSOLUTELY LOVE WHAT WE DO AND WE WOULDN’T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY!
