Etsy

I was born and raised in North San Diego and without rubbing it in, the weather is always near perfect. I have loved vintage jewelry for over 20 years. It started with just one beautiful piece and then came the books, then the collecting, then the spare room becoming a warehouse and what my husband so sweetly refers to as my 'obsession'. With retirement just a few years away, I am selling it all off. Baby steps though, must do it very slowly (this really hurts to part with my finds)!

I am married to the most WONDERFUL man in the world. He is my soulmate. We have 3 grown adult boys - Nathan is in the Navy - stationed at North Island San Diego, Zachary works in a Hospital in Puyallup, WA and Cody works at Petco in Puyallup, WA.

I have 5 dogs, but they are no where near my jewelry (the only room in the house they aren't allowed), otherwise, they are a huge part of our lives and we love them :) I tried to foster abused dogs only to keep them. If I had a ranch, I'd have more. I also dog watch for a few people in the area.

I suffer from debilitating migraines and cannot work outside the home anymore but I work when I can and love having this as a hobby.

I have sold on ebay since Jan 2001 but the Etsy community is so much nicer and I couldn't be happier here! If you have any concerns about my newness here, please go to ebay and search under the same shop name, you can see for yourself how many happy customers I've had over the last decade+
