Wild Little Goose
"Happy Spring Everyone!
Working on prints has been my favorite new activity this winter, and every minute spent outside the shop is a minute spent thinking about getting back.
I am also thrilled to continue offering custom bindings to fit your needs, photo albums, new animal postcards and greeting cards, and the usual charming hand made journals. May all these books some day take flight.
Making and selling books lends itself to a special connection between myself and the buyer; once the book leaves my hands, it becomes a space for expressions of all varieties. When all is said and done, we just happen to create something together. As the world seems to be growing more and more complicated, I feel that making a beautiful object of expression together is just about the best thing we humans can do with our time. It is an honor to be able to make books for others, and I hope to only find more ways to share the things I love.
Please contact me if you are interested in custom binding- it is a joy for me to work with people on their portfolios, wedding albums, guest books, journals, and boxes." ~Brooke Usrey

ReNaisVintage
"I love:
the smell of an old book... (trying) to read the message on the back of a postcard... imagining the person who sent/received the card... running my fingers over a vintage poster... the creases in a 1890s fashion magazine... imagining the excitement of the women who read them... wondering who owned all these things...
My philosophy:
love... be creative...upcycle as much as possible... use scans of ephemera into usable and beautiful items...

We have 2 different memberships: one is a general membership, for those who love postcards and collecting postcards and the other is designed for shops with at least 25% of their
items listed are postcards.
The only difference in the memberships is that the latter will be included in shop
interviews, BNRs and postcard related activities. We also plan on having activities for
the general memberships. Hope to see you there soon.
