About Time Spent Laces

I have been selling old laces for many years. I stared out with a Victorian clothing shop in the theater district of my home town. There I met so many interesting artists who loved to play dress-up in my shop, trying on many different combinations of old clothing and accessories. I also became involved with finding treasures for theater productions. When the clothing market became scarce for wearable antique clothing, I re-invented myself with the study of laces, a natural field of endeavor, as it is not too far away from the study of antique clothing.
I am a trusted, honest and experienced seller and work hard to provide excellent customer service.You will find many antique lace treasures in my lace shop at timespentlaces.etsy.com.
