Big Changes on the Way!

The last couple of post I’ve planned on posting catch up post.

The reality is that has not happened.  

Despite my best efforts,

Time gets away from me.

The reality is Isa Creations is just me!

I create everything I sell.

I am the only person who posts on Instagram/Facebook and 

Occasionally blog.

Setup at markets and day at markets, is mostly me

(I do have some help at markets)

Despite my intentions,

My Etsy shop has remained closed with the exception of an occasional listing.

(Listings have been for specific people-convo order)

My Etsy shop has been inactive for several years,

Not sure how many.

Originally Opened Etsy shop in 2009.

Years later changed the name to Isa Creations Vintage.

I’ve decided not to try to catch up on blog posts.

Going to work on posts going forward.

Although my blog has not been kept up to date recently,

My Isa Creations Vintage INSTAGRAM account has.

I posted on Instagram last week about big changes!

Going back to Etsy!

In order to reopen my Etsy shop and properly maintain it,

I have to make big changes—

Will start doing less and less markets.

I will be a vendor at Market Beautiful (formerly Vintage Whites) 

at the end of March and will be at Paris Street (May, June, September & October)

I have also already committed to be a vendor at Applewood Arts Holiday Market and plan on participating

 in Rue de Noel -A Paris Street Holiday Market

And that’s it!

I plan on cutting back on markets even more in 2019.

The explanation for these changes were posted on Instagram:

This is my new Etsy shop banner:

I’ve also updated by blog header which coordinates with my Etsy shop banner.

I hope to reopen my Etsy shop in a few days.

I will start by listing a variety of items using the heat transfer technique. 

 Tea towels with images of 

 Vintage  flower seed catalogue covers,

Paint by number 

Vintage fruit crate label images

Along with vintage flower seed drink coasters and finally

Vintage embroidered State Bird Drink Coaster.

Here is a sample:

After Market Beautiful ,

Hopefully by mid April I will list more Isa Creations handcrafted items.

Again, this transition to online will not be overnight, 

It will take time to list most of all of my inventory.

Each month I plan on adding more shop categories of inventory.

Stay tuned for more details as I will have an 

Isa Creations Vintage giveaway on Instagram 

Plus a discount code to use on Etsy

Valid for the first week of my shop reopening -

Currently working on my 2017 books for Isa Creations - It's that time of year -- Tax Time. Putting back the CPA hat I once wore (20 years ago).  I once liked that hat, wore it for 10 years on a daily basis but after 20 years of being a stay at home mom, I find don't like that hat! I want to create not enter numbers into a computer.  But it's an important hat!

However, as soon as I dig myself out of the paperwork/computer spreadsheet  hole I am currently in, I will be sharing some new ideas and market inventory I hope to CREATE  and have available at Rebel Junk Market. 

The above is also a reason I have not blogged like I promised myself.

Still have several blog posts I need to catch up on from 2017!

Published Sew Somerset Winter 2018 Issue

Back in November 2017, 

I was swamped creating inventory for the Holiday Markets.

In the midst of all that,

I received the Winter 2018 issue of Sew Somerset

Published by Stampington & Co.

I was so happy to have my mason jar tea towel published!

I love creating using the sewing illustration technique.

I am grateful Sew Somerset continues to publish my work.

Late November, I posted about this on

Isa Creations Vintage on Instagram and Facebook.

It’s only now( months later) that I share this on my blog.

Continue to struggle to blog as often as I should; 

Especially since I have created many new items all these past months.

So here it is!!!
