[ pretty 1970s Gunne Sax dress here. ]
Today’s post was going to be a video tutorial of how I do this hair style, but my computer and camera decided they no longer wanted to play nice with each other. This was after the test video I filmed Monday–suddenly when I downloaded the new one to my computer, the sound sync was completely off! So excuse the late post today–hopefully I can either wrangle the syncing problem or record a new version tomorrow (so unless further catastrophe ensues, expect the tutorial Friday!). Here’s keeping my fingers crossed!

I’ve been starting to go through my boxes of vintage and whittle things down a bit. I’m just getting to the point where I have a lot of things that I’ve bought that no longer fit or aren’t my style any more. So over the next couple months, I’ll be adding a lot of vintage pieces from my own closet (as well as other things I’ve had in my collection) to my Etsy shop. Kind of a virtual garage sale. I updated today with a number of garments to start off with (just a few are in this post; lots more over at the shop), so be sure to swing by and check it out! Hopefully they’ll all find new homes–instead of hiding in the back of my closet!

[ please drop by the shop! ]
Just a little note that I’ve been updating the shop lately with some new goodies! I added a bunch of vintage patterns on Monday and will be updating throughout the day with vintage clothing (a preview of which is above). A big thank you to everyone who has stopped by or purchased things from the shop!
Now I am off to finish my chores and work on some baking that will be thank you’s for help people gave us during the car drama last week (since I found out that both the parties involved love cookies!)…

[ 01. orange sherbet blouse, 02. polka dot cherries brooch, 03. 50s plush bolero. ]
Since many of you have asked to be kept updated on the progress of reopening my Etsy shop, I thought I’d let you know that I’m starting to add some handmade items (including the cherries brooches and vintage clothing. I’ll be updated throughout the week, with more vintage garments and patterns to come! Currently I’m focusing mostly on trying to move some of the things I’ve collected over the years, or old EM stock (such as prints and the appliqued totes I used to make), and will be shifting focus on original pieces more as we get closer to summer.
Did you know that you can easily follow any Etsy shop with your feed reader? I have a section set up in my Google Reader that handles Etsy shop feeds exclusively! Simply go to the shop’s page, scroll down to the “Subscribe to this shop’s feed” on the right, right click (on PC’s) and copy the link location. Paste that URL into your feed reader’s “add new feed” section (it varies from reader to reader) and finish the steps to set up a new feed subscription. It’s simple! Plus it allows you to be updated as soon as new items hit the virtual shelves of your favorite shops–so you don’t miss out on anything exciting!
