Often I have found postcards that were very difficult find information on. I also have noticed that there is no longer a Postcard Collector's Magazine in publication and very few true informational sites on the internet. In hopes of consolidating the vast ephemera knowledge found on ETSY and to tap into my fellow postcard collector's & designer's enthusiasm I started the Pacific Postcards Team. I would like to use today's post to introduce the current members of the team (including myself) and a small sample of each of their shops.

"Collecting vintage items, specifically postcards, finding beautiful natural works of art, and natural crafts has been a passion of mine for most of my life.
My postcard collection has outgrown Butterfly In The Attic so it now has its own beautiful little store."

"My obsession with Collecting began at age seven, when I went with my Father to the local dump, in those days it was an open pit that the community added their refuse and unwanted items to. My first 'Find' was a plastic bag of fabric scraps, to me it was Treasure. I taught myself to sew by hand little doll clothes for my hand me down dolls.
I come from Humble Beginnings, so Thrift Stores and Garage Sales provided me with every item I needed. For the last thirty years or so I have never left the Treasure Hunt.

"I am a full-time organic farmer so my day starts early and ends late. My time is spent with my animals and large market garden of heirloom vegetables. Hard, but rewarding work and I wouldn't have it any differently. I do however find time to collect goodies and divest myself of extra items from my collection. I have a large collection of vintage postcards, Victorian Trade cards, stamps, covers and postal stationary as well as books and from time to time craft related material. I hope you will enjoy my offerings.I am a proud member of The EtsyVintageTeam, an organization of Etsy sellers who are passionate about vintage and antiques, as well as items that are handmade with vintage components...

Since my student days in vibrant Glasgow, I developed a passion for the vintage and the antique and for the worn and the wretched items of yesteryear.
I visited more vintage shops than classrooms but graduated with a Masters in History of Art. Currently a freelance designer, I have recently decided to move abroad and have to part with a large part of my treasured collection, there is simply no container big enough to transport my decades of antique and vintage finds!
I source my items from vintage fairs, estate sales, markets and elder relatives and their buddies. I have carefully chosen contacts in France and Germany that provide me with authentic vintage lace, millinery and other special items..."

So here's a little bit about me:
I went to school in Bridlington and took my gcse's and as-levels in art and film subjects. I then went on to art college where I got my Diploma in Fine Art. After that I went to University and finally got my BA (Hons) degree in Animation. Since then I have been travelling (alot!) and working as a self employed and freelance animator. I now live in Bridlington with my boyfriend and rabbit :)
My hobbies are photography, listening to music, travelling, playing piano and playing sims!
I have lived in or around Bridlington all of my life. Although I get itchy feet alot and love to travel I do like to come home to Brid. It is a beautiful seaside town and many people I care about live here. It is not a place that is central to anything but I find that having the internet makes everthing... "

About
"I am a mom of three beautiful little girls (Rita, Claudia and Natalie) and have a very loving and supportive husband. I have a Masters in Business degree and have spent many years working in banking and Wall Street. I decided to take the more creative route after my beautiful daughter Rita was born. So I quit corporate America and decided to start creating, which has always been my passion. I also have a paper crafting and scrapbooking website for 8 years now (www.creativedesignboutique.com)I love creating vintage art that reminds me of the old Vintage Paris Market.
I spend a lot of time in my craft studio which I call my happy place. ... "
