50 Listings?!
Since opening my shop on Etsy almost two weeks ago, my aim has been to reach 50 listings and now tonight, I have finally reached it! It feels good but the next aim is 100, so I better keeping going! Hopefully I'll reach 100 within the next two weeks. :)

Upcycle
I decided to upcycle an old map I had, that was tattered and had no value to it. So, I made some adorable badges from it!
I also made a few others but haven't got around to making them yet.
Have a place you'd love to have as a map, from the UK? Let me know and I will see what I can do!

First Etsy Sale!
I had my first sale through my Etsy Shop last night, I couldn't be more pleased! It's given me the push I need to make me list a few more items, which included a vintage compact.
Do you collect vintage compacts? I'm in love with them, they have such stunning designs!
I got around to listing another postcard too, an adorable dog one from Circa 1930s.
I'm still so new to selling on etsy, having my own blog and even having a facebook page, so bare with me as I learn more and improve my adventures with selling beautiful vintage items. Check out my Facebook Page if you haven't already, where you can easily keep track of new and upcoming items.

Compacts!
I was bought a small amount of stock this morning and stumbled across the most beautiful vintage compact!
It's not yet for sale in my etsy shop but if anyone is interested in it, I can happily arrange payment through paypal for you. It's a vintage compact, still researching it's age but it's made by Stratton, a company that began making compacts in 1923. I personally collect Stratton compacts and am very tempted to keep this myself but I bought it with the intention of selling on, so I will have to try and resist it.
I also bought another compact by stratton, just as lovely and vintage!
I'm very passionate about old books and today, I bought my oldest book to date!
It's from 1885 and will eventually be available to purchase but I am not in a rush to sell it, as I
have never owned a book of over a hundred years old!
If you would like to see my other items, pop along to my Facebook Page or my Etsy Shop!

Colchester Postcards
I'm from a little town by the name of Colchester and so, I thought it only fitting to share a couple of postcards I have, featuring it! If you didn't already know, Colchester is the oldest recorded Roman town in Britain.

Does anyone have any advice on increasing the amount of likes upon a facebook page? I am very new to promoting online and would love any advice. Here's a link to my facebook page, if you are interested in sparing it a like from yourself. :)
Oh and here is an adorable my little pony for you to admire! ;)

People on Postcards!
Vintage postcards of people always seem rather enchanting to me! I currently have three vintage postcards of ladies in my shop, equally as beautiful as the other!
Plenty of Postcards!
Thought I should share a few pictures of the vintage postcards I have available in my etsy shop! I'm completely in love with these.. It's so interesting looking back at how places used to look, many years ago!
Bridget's Bygones Blog!
Created this blog for my vintage etsy shop, Bridget's Bygones! I'll be using it to share pictures of my beautiful, old finds and what I have available for purchase. I'm quite a newbie with blogs so bare with me, while I stumble my way through getting used to having one!
