About ABetterTime

Sales 14,405

On Etsy since 2008

Antiques are my passion.

Auctions are the most fun thing for me to do--I just love that you never know what you might find at one...ask my family about some of the strange things I've hauled home over the years. It took me a few years to build up the courage to start selling some of my treasures, but I've never looked back.
Etsy has taken the place of all my other selling venues.
I used to have multiple shops on Etsy, but that got too confusing...this is it!!
I have a wonderful husband who puts up with a lot of "stuff" in our house...he also does a lot of the post office runs.
Both grown daughters have shops on etsy.
Emily was the first:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/whichgoose
Then Amanda:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/rogueretro
They are both more successful with their Etsy shops than I am, and I'm so proud of them both.
