Whilst various magazines still publish photos of shabbiness I have found that sales in certain items, particularly enamel have dropped off. I love running my website and it really is only a hobby (with perks) but I am now wondering what to buy to sell. I love the linens best but these are so hard to find and I know house clearance traders sell them for rags!OhSoVintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07130228440172446040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-75074255499552778742014-03-21T21:11:17.875+00:002014-03-21T21:11:17.875+00:00I still love the nostalgia,all things floral and p...I still love the nostalgia,all things floral and pretty,it must be tough deciding which way to go. I am trying to decide wether to take on a different space within Olympia,it would mean a £30 increase in my rent.I don't do it to make a living,it's more of a passion,but as you say sales have been very slow so far this year.I think there's been a glut of people doing the same things,myself included.Will wait and see what the next must have/do is going to be!Kind Regards Pam.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693591615915574253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-60861789019550136902014-03-18T13:37:36.666+00:002014-03-18T13:37:36.666+00:00Hi Niki, I understand how you feel: our old shop u...Hi Niki, I understand how you feel: our old shop used to sell popular American style folk art in earthy colours, but things slowed to a crawl as people turned to light, white French country style. We were faced with difficult decisions... I do hope you find the right way for your lovely business to go very soon :-)Jane Westwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06983053002180679463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30438487.post-61174098636592808702014-03-18T12:46:07.469+00:002014-03-18T12:46:07.469+00:00Hi Niki. Sorry to hear you are having difficulties...Hi Niki. Sorry to hear you are having difficulties making decisions about home and work. Hope it gets easier for you. I love all your fabric and embroidery finds and the cushion made using the embroidered panel is beautiful. The floral fabric works so well with the colours in the embroidery. What a surprise you must have got opening that suitcase with the beautiful fabric interior. Hope you have a successful day at the fair on Monday.
