This Old Song

12/26/2012

I'm working on a plan to get This Old Song into the street. Etsy is good, but I like interacting with folks in person and selling vintage at prices I feel comfortable with instead of Etsy standards. It's much nicer to be outside and part of the Marigny/Bywater landscape, than to sit at home on the computer creating listings. The new plan is to use Etsy mainly for pieces that are above the price point of a street purchase, such as designer goods. This Old Song on the street is all about NOLA neighbors and visitors having a fun experience and buying environmentally sound clothes. Yay!
