New Old Stuff in the Store

So I had this time this afternoon to take better photos of the items already posted in the store.  I also took photos of a handful of new stuff, that is now available for purchase at Motif Number One.  I used the old shed in my yard as the backdrop, and it worked out even better than I expected.  The muted blue/gray color of the shed really brings out the colors in all of my items.


A great Pendleton shirt! I really love the colors in this one, especially the mustard yellow.  Its a great lightweight wool, totally wearable into springtime, and even on chilly summer nights.  In absolutely pristine condition.  Men's XL

Another great Pendleton, made of a heavier wool than the red plaid one.  Its a great green/blue/white plaid that matches almost anything.  There are two small holes, the size of a pentip - one on the front, one on the back.  Men's XL

I bought this shirt for myself, but for the sake of having inventory I put it up in the store.  It's a perfectly clean LL Bean (mens?) shirt from the early 1990s.  Made in America! that's the LL bean I grew up loving - not that made in Hong Kong crap they shill now.  Men's 16?

A classic staple by a classic brand.  This LL Bean crewneck sweatshirt was obviously worn with love, not a stain or a mark to be seen.  This is another piece I bought with myself in mind, I may or may not have worn it to the grocery store.  Medium - unisex.

A long lasting winter classic - Irish knit fisherman sweater made by LL Bean.  This one has a really interesting color - from far away its perfectly gray, but up close its a blend of gray and green and purple. It's super warm and with good care will last many many years.  Women's small.

A note about pricing:  One thing that is very important to me is to keep prices low and reasonable.  I'm not looking to make a huge profit off this venture - it's something I enjoy doing and etsy/blogging simply give me an outlet to share.  I want shoppers to rely on my shop having the most reasonable prices for high quality vintage items, and I'll never price anything higher than what I would personally pay for it, and I'm really cheap!
