For the last ten years, I have shared VB with two great ladies in retail stores in San Antonio and Boerne, I have done it on my own by doing antique and gift shows and have had spaces in other stores. All of those ventrues have grown the name Vintage Bliss in South Texas. I am so thankful for all the people who have been VB fans from the very beginning!
It has taken ALL of those avenues and all of these years for me to figure what I love and don't love about retail! -The part I love is the creative part. I loved talking with customers about their homes and how bought items could fit into their homes and how they could best be displayed with the decor they already had. I love making new creations out of old things and creating displays and vignettes. They part I did not love was being away from my family and the so very long hours it takes to keep a store running- I guess I'm not really cut out for a true brick and mortar store!
So, this time I am combining all the things I love! I will be posting some of my own decorating projects and vignettes along with selling some vintage items and my original creations. So excited to get started with this! I am also in the process of opening an Etsy store. I would love to feature some of you! If you have a great vignette you would like to share or have questions about how to create a vintage feel in your home by combining what you already have with some new (old) items, I would love to help!
