Salvage Life will be on the "TODAY Show" - Win a $25 Gift

I just received confirmation that Salvage Life will be on the TODAY Show with Bobbie Thomas tomorrow (Nov. 5, 2010) morning during the 9am hour.  In case you don't already have enough motivation to tune in, we will be running the following contest:

We sent Bobbie Thomas the 12 items shown below, but they won't all be on the show.  Be the first to identify which items actually appear on the TODAY Show and win a $25 gift certificate to our shop!  Just leave a comment saying which numbers you saw and the first one to get it right WINS! (Please do not guess before the show airs, all entries received before 9am est will not be considered) Good Luck!

Salvage Life Featured in Live Magazines

Salvage Life clothing and jewelry was featured in the October Style and Beauty Issue of Live Long Beach Magazine.  I worked with the stylist, Casey Lum, last month for this spread and was very anxious to see how it turned out.  They ended up using a lot of our pieces, very exciting! You can also view many of the same photos in Live OC Magazine online (pgs. 15-19).

Salvage Life on the Front Page of Etsy!

I was so excited to learn that Salvage Life was on the front page of Etsy last night.  See the pretty bow skirt in the second photo, that's one of our redesigned vintage skirts!

These skirts have been such a hit at shows, I can barely keep up with the demand.  I take what I would call old lady skirts from the 80's or so, and shorten them.  The extra fabric is then used to make a pretty bow which sits at the side of the waist.  They start out with great colors and prints, but just need a little help with the length and styling...a few simple fixes and they are completely fresh and modern!  The elastic waist ones, can even double as a top ~ see the last photo. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Salvage Life in the Press

I just wanted to share a few recent press mentions of Salvage Life that I was pretty excited about.  First off, we were featured on Kaboodle.com's Buzz Blog in an article on celebrities shopping on Etsy with Taylor Swift wearing the lovely yellow dress from our shop! 

Secondly, I am interviewed in a promo video for Patchwork LB on LBPost.com in connection with We Love Long Beach.  I start talking at 48 seconds, so if you want to skip ahead to see me I understand. :)
