we are 3! [giveaway closed]


11/1/11 update: And the winner--chosen via Random.org--is vegAnn!  Thanks so much to everyone for entering.




Editing this post to let you all know: save 15% on all purchases in the Etsy shop with code HAPPY3 now until midnight 12:00 AM EST on Tuesday, November 1, 2011.

And don't forget the enter the giveaway (details below)!





This Saturday, October 29, will be the third anniversary of the day I opened my Etsy account.  Andy and I had sold vintage in shops and online for several years before then, but I truly didn't start having so much fun doing it until Etsy entered my life.

To celebrate, we'll be sharing a sale code with those of you fabulous friends and customers who follow me here, on my Twitter, and on the Small Earth Vintage Facebook page.  I'll be sharing the code tomorrow, and it will be valid through Monday, October 31.

I'll also be holding a giveaway for $30.00 toward any purchase in the Small Earth Vintage Etsy shop.  To enter, leave a comment on this blog post telling me what you'd like to see more of on the blog or in the Etsy shop.  Only one comment per person, please.  You can get a secondary entry by tweeting a link to the giveway (be sure include my Twitter handle, @SmallEarthVtg, so I know about your tweet), but again, just one secondary entry per person, please.  I'll stop counting comments at midnight 12:00 am EST on Tuesday, November 1, and will then randomly choose a comment, and announce the winner sometime on Tuesday.

And finally: the shop is closing in on its 2000th sale.  A special surprise will be given to the person who purchases that 2000th item.

Thanks so much to all of you--customers, readers, commenters, and friends--who have helped make the past three years so much fun!  We love you.

    I love the variety of what you post on your blog! I think it's perfect how it is. :)

    I'm always looking for tops and dresses, and wool skirts in the winter, if that helps.

    Happy 3 years!

    I just love all the vintage dresses. I'd love to see more party frocks and more wool items. But I agree with Sarah Louise - the blog and shop are pretty perfect as they are.

    Hello! I love your shop already, but I am always looking for vintage separates (especially items that I can wear for bike riding!).

    Many, many congrats Karen and Andy! (and lil' Lucy too!) I honestly adore your shop & blog as they are. Though it would be fun if you did a lil' family outfit post one of these days. You, Andy & the pup -- I'm imagining a lot of plaid here for some reason. :D (already love the posts where you 3 go exploring, btw!) Again, cheers to 3 years on Etsy and wishing you many more successful years to come. <3

    Happy 3rd Etsy-versary!! Congrats to you, Andy and Lucy for all your wonderful work.

    I think your blog and shop is wonderful how it is. It's very you! But... if I had to change one thing... I'd love to see more black and white dresses in your shop just to feed my addiction! ;)

    Happy Etsyversary! Three years is a long time. As an Etsy old timer myself I completely agree about Etsy being a great and fun place to sell! As for the blog, maybe some posts about vintage labels, history of some of the companies and other fun vintage clothing facts?

    Congratulations on your etsy anniversary!
    I think your shop is pretty marvelous as it is.
    If I could see more of one thing, it would be dresses, because I'm constantly on the lookout for them.

    Thanks! Also, i tweeted a secondary entry. ::

    I love your 70's leather purses. So I guess that I would love to see more. :)

    I love reading your blog and looking through the gorgeous shop updates. I'd love to see more hats and gloves in the shop as I am sorely lacking in ownership of those items. :)

    WOW, 2000th sale! That's a lot for a three year old! Congrats!

    I LOVE your taste--I only wish my size 10 body fit into more of your vintage dresses made before people ate so many dark chocolate covered almonds every day (or maybe that's just me!). So I guess more size eights and tens would be dreamy!

    Congratulations, I love looking at your shop and the 40's shirt I bought awhile ago now is my go to shirt for a lazy Sunday afternoon in the park. There isn't much more you could do to improve your shop...maybe more knitwear from the 40's? But again, congratulations I love the shop. Claire
