Exciting times my friends… I’m so happy to announce this news! As you know, I love the online handmade marketplace Etsy and have featured items from sellers many times on my blog. Well, you may not know that Etsy also welcomes vintage items. Last month, I finally got around to opening my shop selling French vintage!
Read on!
While I’m not an expert by any means, I really enjoy French vintage items and decided to open a shop on Etsy to share my favorite finds with the world. From coffee grinders to alarm clocks to old pharmacy items, my little shop has just over 50 items now. And as you might expect, it’s called… Oui In France.
Vintage is alive and well in France, with numerous brocantes and vide-greniers all over the country every weekend. I love heading out to a flea market on Sunday. It’s like a treasure hunt, never knowing what I’ll find. And if I do manage to find something cool, will anyone else think so too?
I’m still learning the ropes of this little endeavor but wanted to share the news. Etsy is such a cool site full of amazing things to be discovered. Oh, and please let me clarify: As excited as I am about this little side project, this blog will not have a shift in content to focus on French vintage. I may add a section to promote my Etsy shop, but don’t worry — you won’t be seeing a bunch of posts on French vintage items.
So if you’re interested in French vintage, check out my shop, won’t you?

just added you to my favorites. You know, I have over 3500 followers on Twitter under just one name and 1300 on the other. Get some cat and dog items and maybe I will feature you on one or both of my blogs.
