About the host
Hosted by Connie Stephens
Native Texan & Local resident of Fredericksburg. Restoring the past through the restoration of classic cars is reflected in Casa Mariposa along with an industrial vibe. Renovating, recycling & re-imaging I select pieces that often served a totally different purpose. The fun is in the hunt!
I am also a jeweler & work primarily with natural stones, silver & copper creating one-of-a kind pieces of art for the body & soul. My pieces are featured at ARTISANS OF TEXAS in Fredericksburg & 2 additional galleries.
My husband has a collection of classic cars he restored & is always happy to give a mini tour upon request. We have
been in the hospitality business since 1988 owning restaurants. We love creating unique spaces for couples, families & friends who want the perfect getaway.
