FOR THE LOVE OF VINTAGE JEWELRY

Jump to solution
Hi vintage jewels! Thanks so much for joining this fabulous vintage team! I had a wonderful time promoting and drooling over the jewels in the Vintage Jewelry thread, and I hope you did too! I hope everyone will feel free to post their jewels and promote the jewelry of others just like we did on the forum thread. And feel free to ask any questions or just stop by to chat - or pop in to say "Hi" or promote your treasury or latest find! We always just LOVE looking at the sparklies!

XOXOX

Hi everyone!

We've gotten the clarion call to add the word "team" to our team tag. There were 410,283 results for "team" when I searched under "all items". Apparently this is the way to go, therefore I've revised our tag to WLV Team (separated). You can insert the two words in one of your tags.

I note that a few on the team have already started tagging with WLV only and I apologize to you for the inconvenience of having to revise.

Smoochies!

I know many of you love making treasuries and we all love seeing them! Sometimes treasury links get lost in the main discussion threads and not everyone gets to see them. I'd like this thread to be a centralized location so that all members will be able to see your handiwork!

Of course feel free to continue posting your treasury links on our two main threads, "We Love Vintage! Do You? General Promo & Chat" and "FOR THE LOVE OF VINTAGE JEWELRY" so no one will miss seeing them!

Everyone remember to comment and click!

Smoochies!

About this team
Welcome!

Whether you're a buyer or a seller...whether its vintage, handmade or supplies...we have it all here! Anyone and everyone is welcome. Our common bond is our love of vintage!

We love looking in and promoting each others' shops. We laugh and talk a lot too! Don't have time to chat? "Hellos" are always welcome! Flying by? That's okay! We know you'll be back when you have more time : ) We're a friendly bunch and there is always room for more!

Every effort has been made to keep this team pressure free and without a lot of bells and whistles. Many have stated their plates are so full that they wanted a team where there wouldn't be a lot of requirements. A place to come and promote, ask questions, chat, have fun and meet other lovers of vintage, both buyers and sellers alike. Be involved as little or as much as you want to be!

We began as a thread in the forums in May 2008. The originator was aPagefromthePast better known as "Page". Her kind and inspiring way made the thread a very special place to visit. I first posted in September 2008 and was welcomed with open arms. In October 2009 I was asked to host the thread and it has been my pleasure to do so. My hope is as a team we will once again feel at home.

I am still getting my "team" feet wet so please bear with me. So far I have asked auntsuesoldnewlovely and waalaa to be leaders. "auntsue" has been a source of strength and encouragement to many on the thread. "waa" brings her joy and expertise of jewelry and I am so happy to see posters from her thread joining us here! Watch for her discussion thread!

You will also find GoodEye's Vintage Seller Directory here. She has worked diligently on creating a centralized location of vintage shops since June 2010. If you have a vintage shop on etsy be sure to post your shop on her discussion thread and she will add you to the list. This thread is not up yet, but will be coming soon!

For those interested in being easily found by other members and/or being included in team treasuries, please add our team tag "wlv team" (separated) to your tags.

As aPagefromthePast would say...

"Post your goodies and let's support each others' shops!!!

Please keep your posts clean, positive and family friendly!"

Additionally, please no calling out on Etsy, administration or other members. Also, please keep any harsh differences of opinion in convos and not on the board.

Well I think I've said enough lol! Let the show begin!!

Smoochies!

Hi Everybody!

Many thanks to everyone who is making WLV treasuries – they are beautiful and a wonderful way to promote the team and our shops!

This is just a note to ask that everyone be careful when creating your WLV treasuries that we not only follow the WLV guidelines for team treasury making, but also Etsy’s guidelines in general. Please pay close attention to the items you include in your treasuries. Make sure vintage items are actually vintage (20 years old or more) and handmade items are actually handmade (not mass produced). We all realize that there may be some sellers on Etsy that may not “follow the rules.” Please make every effort not to include their items in your treasuries.

Keep those beautiful, creative, inspiring treasuries coming!!

Don't forget!

Every Thursday night at approximately 8 PM we have a Show Time thread where we promote fast and furiously and have lots of fun! AuntSue, Waalaa and I feverishly send out reminder convos at that time (though we can't get to everyone). It is very time consuming and detracts us from the thread so it is up to you to remember!

Mark your calendar ~ 8 PM EST ~ Every Thursday ~ Show Time

Smoochies!
