Ok... So I had listed several things on etsy and about an hour later I was contacted by the editor in chief of the online publication... vintageindie.typeped.com
this is a darling online magazine that is read by people all over the globe. Imagine how flattered I was when she asked me if she could feature on of my Etsy items on her site.

How wonderful to be recognized.
I am still exploring the site. I encourage you to do the same... and be sure to check out my daily feature there....
It is a wonderful vintage irish pin. Luck O' the Irish to you!
