Welcome to our Blog!
We just opened our Etsy store at www.localevintage.etsy.com about two weeks ago and are having so much fun! Check back later today for pictures from our most recent treasure hunts!
Some people have told me, mainly my sister, that I should blog about my handmade jewelry and my treasure hunting for vintage goodies. So, i decided to take my little sister's advice and get started!
The first things that people want to know is why I started my Etsy store. Well, that again I can thank my little sis for! I have been creating and selling handmade jewelry for 10 years, but never really dedicated myself to putting it out there on the internet. My sister suggested Etsy, and since I absolutely love Etsy I decided to give it a try. Well, its working out pretty well so far! I love the community that supports each other on Etsy.
I just joined the Etsy Vintage Street Team yesterday. I am very excited about it and the team is great. Check out the team link at http://team.etsy.com/viewteam.php?id=732
That takes us to Vintage. I have always loved old things from vintage to antique. I grew up in Alabama in an area that was steeped with old things and yard sales that were out in front yards year round. Over time I have developed an eye for the types of vintage items that I love and that are also functional. These are also the items I include in my store at etsy. From jewelry to vases and furniture, if it catches my eye and I think I would use it, I post it to my store (If I don't keep it for myself!) I hope that I am able to continue to curate a collection that appeals to many people and also shows my personal taste and likes.
