vintage

You know I have my crafts listed on my Etsy site, right? If you didn't I'll just wait a minute while you pop on over there and see what's going on.

Done?

Ok. One thing I love to waste time on do is browse on that site. Sometimes I just put in a search word and see what comes up. The other day I put lady bug in the search box. Some cute stuff. Some not so cute.

A few times recently I saw on listings that said "vintage something or other." Curious, I clicked on them. Some of these items were from the 80s. And someone is calling them vintage! Since when did the 80s become vintage?

I was a teenager in the 80s.

I moved out of my parent's house in the 80s.

I have craft paint from my first painting endeavors in my first apartment from the 80s. I know this because Michael's used to have actual price stickers that had the date on them. The paint is still usable, by the way. Maybe I should do a testimonial for Delta?

How can this stuff be vintage? Because I am certainly NOT vintage. I swear I am not a day over twenty-nine! In fact, I celebrate the anniversary of my 29th birthday every year.

Vintage! Hmph!
