3 Hearts Vintage

My mother will turn 92 in June of this year and her days of cooking and baking are long gone. I realized this 4 Thanksgivings ago when she was making the Pumpkin pies and forgot to put the sugar in them. Poor gal, she was the best baker ever.

I have always loved to thrift vintage glassware, it seems I've  accumulated so many things that have not seen the light of day for some time! I began the task of purging to make my life less cluttered in 2018 before all the boxes engulfed me.(Since I inherited some of my mother's things too) Which lit the flame under me once again to take up the art of thrifting. Thus, a business was born! This time I will have my granddaughter, Liv, at my side to help me. Why the name 3 Hearts Vintage? The shop is named after my grandchildren who are the loves of my life. Elivia (11), Eli (7) and Ehann (5), they are my 3 Hearts! In this blog I hope to share with you many tips, information, and the joy of thrift shopping. I hope to explore different sources with Liv in finding that perfect vintage piece for our Etsy store. Here are just a few things you can find on my website on Etsy. Check it out....A NEW YEAR and A NEW BUSSINESS, besides you will get free shipping until midnight January 31s...
