Etsy and Web Shop Update - New Items and the Difference Between the Shops

Hello all, this just a quick shop update to let you know that I have added the following fun items to the Etsy shop in the "Costume Jewelry" and "Fabric, Linens, Trims" sections:

I will add a few more housewares, costume jewelry, and linen items this week.  Almost all of the linens are from that cool estate sale that I told you about a few weeks ago.  My Etsy shop will now have a mix of my vintage finds and vintage sewing patterns.

However, you may have noticed that I am posting more patterns in the Web shop at www.serendipityvintage.com than in the Etsy shop.  There is a really good reason for this change.   

In the Web shop I think that you'll have a much better experience when looking for vintage sewing patterns than you do in the Etsy shop, as Etsy limits shopkeepers to only ten sections.  I can list a pattern in unlimited sections in my Web shop!

In the Web shop you can view patterns by:

• Bust size (e.g., 34, 36, 38)
• Era (e.g., 1950s, 1960s, 1980s)
• Type of fashion (e.g., plus sizes, swimwear, menswear, children and teens)
• Manufacturer (e.g., Vogue)

All patterns are now cross-linked into multiple sections.  For example, the pattern above is a 1950s McCall's day dress in a bust size 34 is in "1950s Women's Patterns", "Bust size 34", and can also be found by selecting the manufacturer, "McCall's." 

You can also click on the blue "New Products" link at the bottom of the left hand navigation bar to see new patterns as I add them. If you wish, click on this link now to see this week's new items:  http://bit.ly/bkY0CZ .
