I was so excited to acquire this blog from Abbie last Saturday that I have totally forgotten to introduce myself! My name is Sarah and I am the new owner of The Vintage Moth. Abbie can still be found at
Percy and Bloom.
I am currently living in Mesa, AZ. I am thirty-something and live with my boyfriend and our one and a half cats. I say that because one cat (female) stays indoors all of the time and the other (male) spends most of his time outdoors. (He's a stray that I've adopted, taken in to get shots, and feed everyday. Yes, I'm a sucker for stray animals.)
I recently quit my day job working for a city government that I hated to pursue my own businesses. I have a store on Etsy where I sell 100% wool felt for crafting at
Material Evidence Shop. I also have another store on Etsy where I sell vintage clothing at
Ninth Avenue Vintage. It will be 2 months on May 4th that I have been self-employed and I love it! I am not making as much as I was working for someone else but the freedom is priceless.
I am excited to share some of my vintage images that I own for you to use in your crafts! If you have used one or more of my images, please send me a pic. I would love to see the completed project!
Anyway, here is today's image:
This was taken out of one of my old Harper's Magazine books from 1860. I bought several of these in February at a giant book sale for $2.00 a piece. I could kick myself for not buying all of them at the time, but I didn't know what I was going to do with them back then.
Now that I have shared a little about me, I would like to know about you! Who are you?
