A late Thank you!

Senora Muertos Is Now Selling Vintage Items

My love for things vintage has taken over. I have a love for all things 1940's and 1950's, but can appreciate the 60's and 70's and even some 80's. I grew up going to thrift stores and yard sales as that is where a majority of our toys and clothing came from. So I know a bargain when I see one! LOL! My kids are also growing up to appreciate a good deal. I have been taking them to thrift stores and yard sales as newborns and on. They both get excited when we go and they both know what to look for, condition, price, etc. They are going to be pros soon! Well my love for vintage has driven me to decide to share my knowledge and love by selling vintage items in my etsy store

.

Here a few items that I recently listed. Be on the look out for many more. 

 Vintage Martini or Cocktail Shaker in Yellow

Mid Century or Modern White Cats (Eames like design)

Vintage Bride and Groom Salt and Pepper Shakers

As always thanks for reading my blog and be sure to check back for more!

The 8-Bit bar in St. Louis

The 8-Bit bar in St. Louis, has kicked off it's Kickstarter Pledge.  What is a Kickstarter Pledge you ask?  Well basically an organization, company, not for profit, etc. comes up with a certain amount or financial goal they need to kickstart or open their establishment.  People then donate a certain amount of money in exchange for some type of service or goods offered by the organization.  Money does not exchange hands unless the organization reaches it's financial goal.

So was is 8-Bit bar?  Here is how they describe themselves on their Kickstarter Pledge page.

We came up with the idea for the 8-Bit Bar when we decided St. Louis doesn't need another ordinary bar. How many bars are there here for those of us who would rather watch Battlestar Galactica than a football game? None that we could think of.

We decided that St. Louis nerds and geeks NEED a place to congregate and know that they are in good company- the company of fellow individuals who share an interest in the less mainstream pursuits, such as science fiction, technology, video games, anime, intellectual pursuits, and almost anything else "geeky" one can imagine.

Our dream is to create a social hub that brings people together in an environment that enables them to use their common interests and passions to build relationships with the business, the community and each other. 

That said, in the spirit of fostering such a community, we welcome any and all ideas, suggestions, and help in realizing this dream of ours. We want YOU to be a part of creating this safe-haven for anyone and everyone who relishes in the unusual, the imaginative, and the geeky.
