About vintageinretrospect
Once Upon A Time.
I have always dreamed of making things with my own hands that are functional and giftable. I am rubbish at cooking, so I set my sights elsewhere. License plates came up because I wanted to make some things for myself, and, once I had, I spent way too much money to stop. Now I am always on the prowl for more plates, and the basement is becoming more of a workshop for me than for my husband, and most of his tools are used more by me than him!
Thanks to my fellow college classmate, Jessica Toole Bishop of WithEyesLifted and Silverblayze, for suggesting I start a shop on Etsy. It changed my life!

Please make sure that you have followed the directions for sizing when you purchase a handmade belt. An exchange like the one described above can be made if an error in judgment occurs.

Additional policies and FAQs
Custom Orders:
We <3 custom orders! Here's the process for custom buckles: let me know what letters you'd like (two large letters or small letters if you want more than two) and what colors you're interested in. I'll send you some examples and rough cuts for your buckles, and you decide what you like and make any suggestions so that you're getting a buckle you love. You'll then purchase the custom listing and I get to work on your buckle. Currently, custom buckles are $29.
Wholesale and Consignment:
We do both wholesale and consignment; however, we prefer to limit consignment to our metro Detroit area. Please contact us for wholesale details.
