Hi everyone! I realize it has somehow been over a MONTH since I sent out a newsletter - time gets away from me far too easily these days! But, here I am with a proper update, a big reveal, AND a giveaway!

First, the reveal - I've been working the last few weeks on updating The Vintage List, my directory website. I actually moved the directory pages to the blog, and transferred the domain over to Blogger, so everything is living together on the same site. I gave it a whole new look too, which was the fun part! Yesterday I posted the official announcement, dubbing it The Vintage List 2.0. Click on over to read it, there are links also to the different listing plans and requirements, if you happen to be interested in getting a listing for your shop or blog!


To celebrate the launch I teamed up with my good friend Sherry from Real Deal Books - she put together an amazing assortment of antique and collectible books for me to offer up to folks! All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on the Giveaway post, I'll be drawing a winner at random on Monday, January 28th.

I've also done a few other posts on the Vintage Goodness blog since the last newsletter, that I wanted to make sure you didn't miss...

Blog Goodness:
I was listing some old medical illustrations on Etsy, and decided to keep a few back to upload onto the blog for people to use. I saved them at 300 DPI, so they should be big enough for whatever project you want them for!

I scoured the scans of the 1983 & 1985 Sears Christmas catalogs on Wishbook Web for the toys I wanted when I was a kid, then hunted them down on eBay. I was actually kind of surprised at how many things I was able to find!

I got Netflix - and promptly marathoned all the Dr. Who episodes from 2005 - 2011. Of course that got me digging around for collectibles, and I found some vintage gems!

Facebook Goodness:

Besides posting on the blog, I also post on the Vintage Goodness Facebook page - not just updates about when I list new items, but also fun stuff I stumble across on my internet travels. Here's a couple things I've posted lately, head on over and click Like if you want to get all the updates!


That's all the news for now, until next time!
