My FIRST Blog!!

So Im new at this whole blogging thing. I will warn you, Im not a great writer. Im better at talking, like, face to face. So forgive me if I babble on.

That being said, let me give you a bit on me. My name is Dana, not Concetta (pronounced Con-Chet-Tah). Concetta was my great-grandmother, of whom I have never met but always loved the name. She obviously Italian (duh!) and came to America back in the early 1900's from Naples Italy - along with my great-grandfather Giacomo (James in English) and my grandmother, Vincenza (Jennifer in English). I currently reside in the Live Free or Die state of New Hampshire, but moved here from Brooklyn NY. Yes, yes, I know. NY to NH?!?! Long story...but Im here and making the best of it. I have a background in online media and have worked for boutique ad agencies and huge companies like MTV/Viacom. So being that online media is few and far between up here, I opted to do my own thing - which has always been a dream of mine - and start my own vintage business.

Sooooo, ONTO THE VINTAGE, right?!  Well, obviously I'll be posting about my own vintage finds.  But I will also be posting stuff I find that I adore from other Etsy sellers.  There are so many other sellers that I find so amazing.  I think I will feature one Etsy seller a week (or at least try to).  I'm open to suggestions as to what everyone wants to see, hear or know about.  Like I said, this is my first blog - they didnt teach us how to do this in college back when I had a dial-up and a beeper :)
