Once upon a time there was a girl, she dreamed of one day owning her very own antique shop. Every weekend she would drive to a new small town and marvel at antique establishments while at times thinking to herself, I would do things differently. I would make things a little more about the story behind the piece, make the visit more about the experience and put only one-of-a-kind items on my store shelves.
Over many months she wrote a business plan, purchased a place she could get down to business in [also known as a place to refinish and store her antiques & vintage finds] and started this blog in which you may of only landed on today.
I wanted to share this evening that this is my #101 post. Though I do not have my own store yet, I still have plenty of ideas and plenty of stories to send your way.
I am still pushing towards having my own business on this topic [Antiques & Vintage] whether it be store front or online. Time to keep chugging forward.
Before I head off for the night in lieu of this special post day I thought I would shoot you some quick links to my Top 5 favourite articles to this present day:
