hidden fortunes

This vintage wrap sweater from the Etsy shop had these fortunes hidden in the pockets. I wonder if they proved to be true for whoever owned this sweater 30+ years ago...

summer etsy update

Added some new clothing to the Etsy shop last week. I'll gradually be adding more until the shop is brimming with all kinds of vintage goodies for summer! Keep checking back, as I'll be doing small updates every few days.

better late than never

Working on that long-delayed Etsy shop update. Soon soon soon!

year of the dragon

Happy New Year! After returning from a lovely, long winter vacation, my computer monitor decided to poop out on me, so I couldn't update until I purchased a new one. I recently got an iPhone 4S, so I was able to survive on that for a while, though it's not the best for traditional blogging. It is, however, wonderful for photo-taking. I've especially been loving Instagram (I know, I'm kind of late to the party on this). Here are a couple of Instagram photos, one taken over the holidays and one from today:

Top: Sunset at Grand Canyon National Park. Pre-New Year road trip.

Bottom: Fun vintage fabric that I got at Salvation Army today. 50 cents!

holiday shopping

The Poketo Annual Holiday Sale and Renegade Craft Fair Holiday Sale are going on this weekend in Downtown LA. I'm looking forward to scoring some awesome gifts for my friends and family. Both events are free admission with lots of free goodies for shoppers, so come on down if you're in the area!

delays

Hi there! Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I just wanted to check in and let you know why the Etsy shop hasn't been updated this month. I've been spending the majority of my time helping my dad search for a new home out-of-state. This past week was actually the first time in the last month that I've spent more than 5 straight days in California, but I've been so busy with daily obligations that I haven't had enough time to work on the shop. I'll also be going out of state again this weekend to visit my grandmother in Seattle.

I'm sorry for the delay, but I'm sure you guys understand. Life can be unpredictable sometimes. I'll have a shop update for you as soon as I can. Take care!
