RetroBabs Vintage

Back in March, I had a Meet Up at my home for the Vesties team.  This team is the Vintage Etsy Street Society Team with Martha from Open Door Studio as our fearless leader.  Martha is starting a new local chapter for all us folks in the Chicagoland area. http://www.etsy.com/teams/9520/vintage-etsy-society-of-chicagoland It was a pleasure visiting with Julia of Basya Berkman and Lisa for A Blast From The Past , as well as Martha at our last meet up. Lisa and Julia have teamed up since then and collaborated on a professional photo shoot.  Julia with her vintage clothing and Lisa with her wonderful vintage recreated jewelry.   I bet it was a great team effort! Come and join the team or our local chapter if you are an Etsy member and live near Chicago.

I found out about Etsy because Bec kept sending me there to purchase and look for items for her wedding.  Then I realized they had vintage items and I was hooked !  At first I got into Etsy/RetroBabs to do a project with my daughter, Bec. Now, I think we stay in it because we have made such good friends and communicated with customers all over the world, from Japan to England!  Our love of vintage transfers to others who collect and love it as much as we do.   ( here is our ReMix Clock Plate ) ( Our ReMix vintage box with an original watercolor by Babs )   The article was written by Cindy at RetroChalet and we think she did a wonderful job. She really captured the essence o
