Someone You Should Meet


This time on Someone You Should Meet I am excited to showcase my first Vintage Seller. Since etsy is handmade, vintage or supplies there are a number of them on there. I met Samantha through twitter and upon talking to her knew she was a perfect person to showcase. I am in love with the vintage cameras she has and as soon as my boys are old enough to understand vintage equals DO not Touch or play with I might just get me one! I know that you will love reading about her and looking through her shop even more. So here we go~



Name~ Samantha Marie
shop website~http://SmellyShoesVintage.Etsy.Com

1. What kind of items do you sell in your etsy shop?
Anything and Everything Vintage! From 1940’s Levis Denim, Women’s Ferragamo Heels, and Jewelry from the Boldt Castle Estate, to Handmade dresses from the 70’s! We have lots of Vintage Cameras, Shoes, Clothes, Dresses, Costume Jewelry, and even a section for the Men!

3. What is your favorite part of the selling Vintage?
I absolutely love the hunt for vintage treasures! We go around to Estate Sales, Thrift and Antique Stores, and even the occasional Auction all around Upstate NY. It’s so much fun and such a thrill to find some special vintage Item hiding among everything else! If it’s just what I’ve been looking for, or something I never knew I needed! It’s like a hunt for treasure every time!



4. If you have to pick one item in your shop as your Favorite which one would it be?

This shop is one to check and check back often. I have just recently developed some great relationships with vintage sellers and it is a great group of people and Samantha is no exception. She is caring and thoughtful and for sure a vintage sleuth. I am sure if you have something special you are hunting for you can contact her and she will keep an eye out for you, although she did not tell me this, that is just the type of person she is.
Please take a minute to check out her sites because she is Definitely Someone You Should Meet!
