Valerie McKeehan

Drawing from a love of visual storytelling honed through her career in advertising, Valerie transformed an old picture frame into a “McKeehan’s Café” chalkboard for the kitchen. She fell in love with chalkboard art instantly. Drawn to its simplicity and the nostalgia that it inspires, she opened her online boutique, Lily & Val, in 2012. Whimsical and undeniably handcrafted, her designs are honest and authentic, at home with their imperfections and unique character. She resides in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with her husband.
