Forgotten Treasures




































This is only a third of the warehouse my mother and I went to this week. It's shocking to see how much of what we have in society is just dumped and wasted.

There are TONS of beautiful, wonderful items that just need a little soap and water. Instead of buying from big box stores, promise to start recycling and shopping from smaller businesses that benefit from your purchase.

Recycle unwanted treasures.

Keep these things out of landfills!



To view the treasures I hand picked for you from this amazing place - come view my shop on Etsy.

 




I'll show you how to to see trashed things in a new light. 
Giving you the excitement of wanted to add it to your own home.




Reuse and Recycle!
Stop these places from existing.

New Photography

I got really sick of my old style of photos - they were too dull, dark, and dirty looking. After many people told me I should just fit myself into the Etsy mold of light backgrounds, minimal distractions, and clean/clear true to life colors, I caved in and did it.

Here's my OLD style photo:

 And here's my NEW style:



-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The results of these changes has been a TON of new views, lots of shop favorites, lots of item favorites, and lots and lots of new treasuries using my items. I only have had one sale since I've made these changes, but I'm staying positive about many more.

So what do you think? Do you like the old style or new style better?
