Well today is a one year anniversary for Vintage Amethyst!
One year ago today the 'new' Vintage Amethyst website & homeware range was launched!
Of course Vintage Amethyst itself is over 5 years old now, but a year ago I made the decision to only sell homewares online as I had previously sold handcrafted jewellery online but I was selling jewellery & homewares at craft markets and it was the homewares which I was most fond of & interested in and so I decided to take Vintage Amethyst in the direction of interiors & gifts.
***
So a year ago was a big leap in the world of Vintage Amethyst when I opened the new look Vintage Amethyst website and I must say it is one of the best things I have ever done. This last year has been a wonderful success, more so than I could ever have dreamed of ~ I never thought I would be this busy! *Giggle*
***
I have met some lovely kind people & have been invited to participate in wonderful things & events ~ although I haven't taken up any of these great opportunities yet I think 2009 will probably be the year to take these next big steps!
***
Anyhoo, to celebrate this anniversary for Vintage Amethyst I am having a giveaway!
One lovely person will win this pretty set of a lovely hanging heart t-light holder & vintage style cream rose garland.
