Just the Beginning

This is my first blog and I am excited to begin the story that will be unfolding for the next year. I am in the process of getting all my ducks in a row to open "THE VINTAGE SOCIETY". So far it has been very exciting and also very scary. Starting your own business is a huge responsibility and its not all fun and games.

The last few months I have been in my research phase: Reading books, interviewing store owners, meeting with graphic designers, looking at spaces, etc.

I have started to buy some inventory as well. Going to Estate Sales, Garage Sales and thrift stores to see if I can find some great items. I HAVE!!!!!!!!! I am already excited to put them in the store. I have also been recontructing many dresses and they have been turning out so amazing!

I plan on posting photos and keeping you informed of my journey. The goal is to be open by April of 2008, so keep your eyes and ears open.

Thanks for taking this journey with me!
