featured seller friday : kts815

I am finally getting back to featured seller Fridays again!

:)

Today I am introducing kts815 on etsy who also goes by reFresh. The shop is owned by the married duo Kathleen & Andy. They are just starting out on etsy, so look for plenty more from these two in the future!

Their shop has some pretty sweet vintage goods. Check out our chat below along with some of my favorite picks from the shop...




What made you want to start selling vintage?

Selling vintage was sort of a "happy accident" for my husband and I.

It started as a low cost hobby, we loved spending our weekends searching flea markets, junk shops, and estate sales for unique odds and ends to decorate our first apartment with. We got hooked on the buying experience. Meeting interesting people and coming home with a car full of "stuff" was so much more fun the mall experiences where we would came home frazzled and broke!

After a while our collection was growing way too big, so we decided some of it had to go. We started researching and then that became a hobby too. Before we knew it we were buying, researching, and selling more and more. That's when we decided to set up an Etsy shop, where our vintage now shares a space with the handcrafted reclaimed barn wood furniture & decor side of our business.




Your shop is relatively new on etsy, what are your future plans for it?

To post the remainder of our inventory as soon as possible! I'm a perfectionist, so getting our 200+ items photographed, researched, and posted has been slow for me. We're hoping to double our inventory by the end of the week.



What is your favorite thing about selling vintage?

There's so much I love about it... my favorite thing would have to be the people I meet doing this. Every week I get to meet such a great variety of people with these incredible stories about their stuff. That's really what vintage is all about for me; the people, stories and history that enrich our finds.
