Just a little note to tell you all how thankful I am for you!
November 30th marked the day I "opened shop" 15 years ago on Etsy, which means this is the start of the 16th year.
Never did I think a fun "hobby" would turn into something I love, cherish, and adore even more now than when I started in 2010. It is a way of life for me: the vintage life. And it's one of the best things to happen to me.
I have sold almost 11,000 items through my Etsy shop. Every piece is a labor of love because I intentionally choose each one of those items to put into my store, to purchase it, photograph it, list it, and wait for it to be chosen by someone else to add to their life (or someone else's life. I get a lot of gift-giver purchases, and this time of year is no exception!)
So these pieces are all a little part of me; my love, my life, a part of who I am and want to be. This shop reflects my specific vintage love, and I feel lucky to share it with the world.
If you've purchased from me, read a blog post, or admired from a distance, thank you so much. I'm living a dream come true: doing what I love to do (that just happens to make a little "daily bread.") I have to add that this year has been the best year I've ever had, as far as sales go. So, for those who think instant success is the norm, it isn't. For me, it's taken 15 years to get there! What a journey.
And, in truth, it doesn't get better than this. It's been a blessed journey
Merry Christmas, and please enjoy continuous sales in my shop throughout the rest of the year to celebrate 15 years of life on Etsy. Visit the shop today to see what sparks joy for you!♥
