ARTIST CALL.....

my VERY FIRST Artist Call for Vintage Glam
WHOOP WHOOP!!!


when i first opened the shop - everything worked out just perfectly.  i was connected with some tremendously AMAZING local ladies that have a passion for handmade loveliness.   throughout the year, i have realized how much work it is to do consignment...which is the reason why i had limited the number of artists to what i am currently at.  BUT now i would LOVE to get three more talented ladies creating for Vintage Glam.  i am looking for UNIQUE handmade products that currently aren't being created by anyone in the shop or myself.  


here's a list of current artists in the shop: 






i KNOW this is going to be a very HARD decision - so i am actually not going to make the decision myself - but rather have a group of ladies that i adore help me decide.  i KNOW i will want to pick EVERYONE - so this way we will chat about it and decide TOGETHER what best fits in with Vintage Glam & the rest of the artists. AGAIN - i am looking for UNIQUE products that are not currently being created by anyone currently.  


also, it is probably "easiest" if you are somewhat local.  if you are not local - you will have to be okay with paying the SHIPPING charges of shipping your product back & forth.  


please email me if you are interested...
eryn@vintageglamtheboutique.com


in the subject line put: ARTIST CALL SUBMISSION
within your email - 

  • please give me any information YOU think i need to know.  
  • i will need pictures or a link to pictures of the products that you create. 
  • include what you currently & would want to charge for your item in the shop
  • what YOUR expectations are
  • EMAIL submissions only!! :)
of course, there is a percentage of each sale & monthly fee and also some bookkeeping requirements on your end.  
i will give a reply back that i got your email, along with a few more details {monthly fee/percentage}
...the artists that are chosen will be announced RIGHT HERE on the Vintage Glam blog & via the Vintage Glam Newsletter on August 16th. 

****if you submitted photos/information to me in the past, please send me another quick email that you are still interested!

thanks SO MUCH!
looking forward to seeing YOUR pretty designs!!!

eryn

i actually LOVE WHITE - is that weird?

{which is great until ketchup lands on his WHITE shirt...shorts...& shoes!} ;)
we are thinking of decorating with a lot of white walls & then adding in color with our decor elements.  
i LOVE this kitchen but it might be a little too "vintage" looking for Peter...
we will have to see.  

awwww...
we are going to have a LOT of great wedding pics soon - 
we could do this...

i am a lover of ALL THINGS CHEVRON...love this chair!

Peter is a SPORTS FANATIC...we will have a room in the basement for all of his "stuff"...
i think i will be on the hunt for some LOCKERS, i love this look.  AND my dad happens to collect
globes - i may ask if he has any i could have - decorating with 2 of my favorite guys in the world

OPTIMISM for BEAUTY & BETTER living!

so i just recently updated my blog banner to what you see above.
i've been struggling a bit on HOW to use my blog & 
exactly WHAT i want to use it for.  

i am still in the process of FINE TUNING it & 
will maybe change up the graphics again soon - but this is a start! 

i really LOVE the cover of this journal...the INSPIRATION for my blog header.
it's really, in a nutshell, what i want my blog to represent:
OPTIMISM. BEAUTY. BETTER LIVING.
we can HAVE it & i want to share my way of living that way.
or shall is say how i TRY to live that way. 

thanks for sticking around as i get things all "figured" out...
also, i didn't want anyone to think that i came up with this sentiment...& on my journal - it isn't quoted by anyone.  so i wanted to share a pic of the journal here....and to also let you know that it's available in my shop...HERE! :)


i will be blogging more about all of this.....


ps.....my wedding on saturday was PERFECT!!!  
more pics to come when i get some back from the photographer......
we've  been floatin' on cloud nine every since.......YIPPIE!!!! :)



XOXO, 
Mrs. Hannig {<---had to use it!} ;)

LAST CHANCE to grab some of 
my CUSTOM map pendants
for just $9.50 each!

i have had the WONDERFUL opportunity to create these custom map pendants

see where people LIVE...
where they would LOVE to visit someday...
and of course, where their HEART will always be.

they are a bit more work then i had originally thought...
so the price is going up just a bit...

SO SENTIMENTAL!!!
SO get your orders in TODAY...
you'll save some extra $$$$$$$$$$
and have a new momento for you or a special friend or family member that will mean oh so SOOOO MUCH!! :)
