A New Year

So, we’re well on our way into a new year by now. Vancouver has got it’s first (and likely...hopefully) only snowfall and I’ve finally found time to sit down and update the blog. First off, I want to let everyone know that as of yesterday, Salvagestyle.net has a Facebook page, so please check it out. Be one of the first to “Like” it and post a note. Let me know if you’re looking for something cool that I can find for you, or tell me what you think of something I’ve got for sale on my site.

I’m also excited to be joining a select group of vendors at the Beggar’s Banquet. A fashion-oriented retro sale taking place in the heart of Vancouver’s hip Gastown. It’s an evening show on Friday night and then again during the day on Saturday. The location has a bar, which should lend itself to a great time. Come down and sip a cocktail and browse for some treasures. I’m going to be debuting my new line of greeting cards as well as some fabulous vintage Valentines Day cards, retro dishes, some awesome vintage purple curtains and much, much more! I’ll post some pics on Facebook next week.

Every day my Ebay store is filling up with lots of great vintage treasures. I’ve listed a huge number of vintage dishes, collectibles, and other treasures. My favourite things right now are the awesome 1970’s T-shirt transfers, including Rolling Stones, Allman Bros, Dylan and many more. These are old store stock, original from the ’70’s and look great on T-shirts today. I wear one of mine at least once a week.

I recently listed some really wonderful old maps, from the 1920-1940’s. Beautiful rare pictorial maps that are illustrated with symbols, stories, figures and landmarks. The illustrations are so beautifully done, these maps are works of art. Most of them have sold, but there’s still a few in my store, so check them out.

Next up is my Etsy store, which will be coming soon. I’m working on some cool surprises... so keep checking back. In the meantime, if the snow is still coming down in your part of the world, drive safe, and happy treasure hunting!
