Reborn Vintage

Remember this vintage celluloid necklace? It's been recreated as a bracelet, ring and smaller necklace!

Ahem, Target.

I've been getting quite a few emails from other moms who have also gotten false positives with their Target early pregnancy tests. I love Target but they need to step up and correct this, it's really breaking my heart. This false positive problem is obviously a wide spread issue since the complaints are even in Target's own web site's reviews.

Target - mom's are your primary target audience correct? Don't alienate your best customers with this situation. Do what you need to do. Get a bunch of your non pregnant employees to keep peeing on sticks till you're sure you've got this figured out. But do figure it out my friends, I don't want to have to go shop at the Walmart.

Sunday Sunday Sunday Sale!

The craft show was a lot of fun. Gwen brought me hot chocolate and hung out with me for most of the afternoon. And Jenny came bearing awesomely trashy magazines and a diet coke. I felt very spoiled!

Sold a nice amount of things. It was a church sale, in a church basement with lots of really nice people. I met some new vendors that were telling me all about which craft shows I should check out.

The best part was selling a sexy/naughty Cracker Jack charm necklace to this adorable 80 year old woman. She said, "I'll wear this every day!". We should all keep our sense of humor that long. The worst part was the poor lady in the booth behind me with really bad gas. Ironically, she was placed right next to someone selling some good smelling potpourri. Or perhaps the gassy lady has worked the show before and that was strategy on the organizers part?

As usual, I got all hyper making a giant stock of goodies for the show - so I'm doing a one day sale to get myself psyched up to photograph and list all the new stuff.

So today only - Sunday Sunday Sunday - 30% off everything! As usual, I'll refund you via paypal or send you an adjusted invoice. Whichever works for you. Thanks!

Lust In Their Hearts And Their Armpits

I was cutting up some crumbling vintage magazines and came across a few magnificent advertisements. I'll post more - but I think this one is my favorite, it's from a magazine that was published in the 1950s.

This ad must have made all those gals terrified that people were going to smell the dirty business all over them.
