You are most welcome to put the Vintage Fashion Guild link on your links page to put people in the know about this chat board. I think i might be able to scare something up if you want to add this board or site to your links page.
However, the Vfg "member seal" is for folks that have applied and have been accepted into trade membership status. Not only are we a fun. informative site, but we are a trade organization as well.
Once you have been in business for a year (website, running a physical vintage store, etc. For ebay sellers, there is a feedback # requirement as well), you may apply for trade membership. There are a few other criteria to meet, like completeness in listings (measurements, accurately dating, and of other good business practices etc,). ...oh and of course...no pushing and shoving around here LOL ha ha ha :bouncy:
You are already a great gal and a very important participant on this board, and are creating a great foundation for yourself and your new business venture. So just keep your eyes open and your ears to the ground on ways to continue to improve your business - from the nuts and bolts of customer follow up and learning how to measure some of the tricky garments, etc, to expanding your horizons on eras that might not be familiar to you.....and with all that being said, should you be inclined when the time of course passes and you feel you meet the other requirements as well, you most definitely will be more than ready to apply.
