So excited to announce that Ben and I are selling antiques and crafts on Etsy!! We just opened up the shop a few days ago and I still need to add a ton more inventory. We went to Waxahachie yesterday and found so much cool stuff to sell! Like these fun candlestick holders, for example:
Hope you'll read how we got started below and add us as a favorite on Etsy! http://www.etsy.com/shop/CraftyFindersKeepers
Our Story:
Finder's Keepers Crafts &Antiques is owned and operated by newlyweds, Ben and Shannon Gibson.
We did not have a lot of money when we first started dating, so many of our dates and outings were trips to antique stores to look around and lose track of time finding antiques that we loved or remembered from our grandparent's houses. We found that we really loved the mid-century modern style. As our parents and grandparents saw our love for antiques evolving, they began to share items they had held onto with us. Many of these vintage gifts are featured in our home today, like Shannon's vintage Pyrex bowls from her Grandmama.
We began to accumulate so many antiques that we sought permission to sell some of the items. This income allowed us to go to flea markets and pick more items that we could sell. The jackpot came when one of our neighbor's gave us permission to take all the old doors, windows and hardware from his 1925 house that was about to be demolished. Once we had a large enough inventory, we established Finder's Keepers Crafts & Antiques and have loved selling. Shannon has been able to create handmade dog beds from some our vintage suitcases, as well as other crafts that have been fun to make and sell.
Established in 2012, Finder's Keepers Crafts & Antiques sells quality vintage antiques as well as many handmade crafts. Find us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/FindersKeepersCraftsAntiques
