All About Me
What everyone should know about me
I have been selling vintage linens on eBay for about seven years, but I also buy on eBay whenever I can. I love to search for random terms just to see what treasure I'll find . . . like 'pea pods', 'French country' or '1940s'!
Things I sell
I usually offer a pretty eclectic assortment of vintage items--gorgeous antique Madeira, colorful hand-embroidered pillowcases, runners & tablecloths, whimsical 40's printed tablecloths, bold vintage hankies, antique lace trim, and charming vintage fabrics. While textiles are my area of expertise, there are lots of other things that I just can't walk by when I'm out shopping for inventory. To tell you the truth, I have a really hard time passing up anything with fruit, veggies, or big pink cabbage roses!
Things I buy
My home is a pretty unusual mix of things -- currently I lean more toward a modern style but I am always looking for ways to incorporate the vintage items that I love into a more modern decor. Currently, I buy travel themed items for my daughter's soon to be new bedroom decor, original artwork, transferware, vintage anything with bluebirds on it and veggie themed vintage textiles.
Things I collect
Kitchy barware, risque vintage hand towels, veggie tablecloths, ironstone, brown transferware, jadite dinnerware & serving pieces, and old ads for laundry products.
