Getting My Feet Wet!

So I opened a tiny stall for myself at a Craft Co-op not far from where I live. It's a start, no complaints. But, it's only my Retro Vintage that I'm selling. 
The jewelry and crafts have to wait. "One thing at a time", I'm always telling myself.
What's interesting in this field is one thing. People still don't get the idea - Retro Vintage. To explain it a little clearer, it's stuff that you can live in your house with and use. To really truly decorate and enjoy it at the same time.  Not something you buy and cover or tell your kids not to touch. It's like comfort food that you sit and live in.
The other thing that funny is: People don't get that they can still buy brand new pieces. Whether it's art or furniture. Mix and Blend, with colors too. Not so Matchy Matchy.  It's makes you home more who you really are to yourself and others.
Just recently I had a woman email me and said, "Is your place in a flea market?". Yeah, it's old but interesting stuff. How I see it, she wasn't looking that closely. She didn't get it.
I'll be writing up on some individual piece that I have . And the new ones that I'll be getting in from time to time.
