I opened my original shop, julsofparadise.etsy.com in 2007 to feature my seashell creations.

While hunting thru cool obscure consignment shops, estate sales and vintage shops for items to embellish with seashells, I am often drawn to cool old things that don't necessarily need to be embellished with shells. Sometimes, ok, VERY OFTEN - ;-} - I get carried away and just cant resist things that are not seashell-ish at all!

So I created VintageOfParadise as the place to find cool vintage treasures and things that "may be related" to seashells, beachy and tropical - or not!

Keep checking back, more 'cool old things' will be added often. :-)
