I am a retired history teacher that Loves Antiques & Vintage. I have been a collector my entire life.  I am now selling on VAMP, two years ago I opened a booth in my town.  My hubby and I enjoy sourcing together and creating vignettes for the booth. I also enjoy meeting people within the antique & vintage community ❤️ Sustainability: By choosing antique or vintage pieces your carbon footprint is reduced by cutting down on waste & demand for new materials and extends the life of products we use. With this in mind, LightningBug’s ship’s with Clean recycled materials. Please re-use our packing materials to ship your next Antique or Vintage item. ❤️🌎
