ABOUT SHARON

Sharon in Búðir on a trip to Iceland

Having called Naperville home for nearly 20 years, Sharon's long career in brand storytelling gave her the gift of travel and meaningful connections, opening her life to the beauty of diverse cultures and the artisans who bring them to life.

After years of dreaming, she discovered a storied little space tucked inside the oldest building in Naperville. Up a charming stairwell to the second floor at 216 S. Main Street, she opened George & Fred—a boutique designed to delight the senses. It’s a place to wander, feel inspired, and maybe even meet a friend or two.

The shop is a reflection of Sharon’s love for beautiful design, handcrafted work, and meaningful objects. Every piece—whether jewelry, home decor, or a one-of-a-kind find—is chosen with intention and a deep appreciation for artists and makers who lead with heart and passion.

George & Fred is a celebration of soulful style and everyday beauty—inviting you to discover pieces that make your world feel more personal, inspired, and full of story. 

Welcome to George & Fred—a collection of beautiful finds to adorn your extraordinary world.
