New goodness at auction on eBay this week!
I got sidetracked with Vintage Weekend work and trying to get my domain moved over to my new host (long boring story there - it STILL isn't moved yet, either!), but I did get some stuff listed at auction too...

Reader Survey - The Results Are IN! :)
I am SO glad I decided to do this survey, it was a blast watching the results come in, and you all blew away my goal of 50 responses by a long shot - I ended up with 76 total! I think that is more than enough opinions to get a really good idea of what you all would like to see on Vintage Goodness 2.0... So, let's look at the results!
The top spot was basically a tug of war between Featured Collectibles and Out & About posts. In the end, Featured Collectibles won out by a tiny little bit... I was very happy to see it come in first, actually - I have a mile long list of ideas for posts in that category, so I think I should hopefully be able to do a new one every week...
I haven't really done very many Out & About posts before - but, I guess I am going to start since it seems so many of you want them! I totally get it - I enjoy reading about other people's adventures too. If you can't actually go to an area and thrift it yourself, the next best thing is to follow along with someone who can! ;)
The 2nd place spot was a tug of war between Vintage Decorating and Haul Posts. I've done both of those kinds of posts in the past, but basically I have gotten lazy about making them a priority. So, I will be sure to move them to the top of the to-do list once the new blog is up and running.
I'm flirting with the idea of doing some videos along with my blog posts - the Out & About and Haul categories would definitely be ones to try that with. I'm going to do a test run sometime with the video camera on my phone, and see if that would work... What do you all think? Would you like to see videos as well as regular posts?
Oh, before I forget, the #5 spot went to the Selling Side Of Vintage. I've tried to do some of that in the past, but I've always been conflicted about whether or not it is something that belongs on the Vintage Goodness blog... I'm going to give it a bit more thought. The top 4 categories will keep me busy enough, I'm sure, maybe once I get those up and running smoothly I will try diving into the Selling Side...
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who took time out to participate in the poll - it is a big help! Stay tuned, an update about my progress on getting the new blog going will be coming soon... :)

The reader poll is up - what do YOU want to see on the new Vintage Goodness blog?
I am going to be posting more frequently once I'm moved over to the new site, and I need YOUR help - I've set up a poll for my readers to vote on what type of content they are most interested in seeing on the blog. It's a ranking style poll with 7 choices - so just rate the different categories from 1 to 7, 1 being the choice you are most interested in, 7 being the one you are least interested in. Easy peasy! It will be a HUGE help to me, so a million thanks in advance for your participation! :)

BIG News - Vintage Goodness 2.0 Is Happening!
I don't have a launch date yet, I'm hoping to have it up within the next month or so... The main domain might point to a site-in-progress during that time, if you want to find this site in the meantime, just go to vintagegoodness.blogspot.com, it will all still be here. :)
That's not all though - I need YOUR help! I am planning on posting way more often on the new blog than I have been here lately, and I want to know what all my readers would like to see happening over on Vintage Goodness 2.0. I'll be setting up a reader poll so everyone can vote on what they are most interested in - to be notified about the poll, you just need to sign up for the email newsletter:
It's hard to believe that I've been blogging for over 7 years now (!!!), and I'm super excited to be trying something new with it. I hope you will all come along for the ride! :)

New goodness at auction on eBay this week!
I did a little better getting auctions listed this week - my waiting to be listed pile is still pretty huge though... I need to get caught up before sale season kicks in - which isn't all that far away now! The thought of Spring sales makes me giddy. ;)

New goodness at auction on eBay this week!
Last weekend I went to my favorite kind of estate sale - the kind where the owner never threw anything away. Ever. The house was packed, with just pathways cut through the rooms. It made shopping it difficult, but there isn't much that is more fun than digging through that kind of sale! I came home with some goodies, some of which I got listed at auction this week, along with some other stuff I pulled from my slightly overwhelming to be listed pile...
