Hello Friends.

It's been a long time since I wrote. I know. I apologize. But here I am, and I have refurbished my online shop just in time for the holidays.

Last year I moved to a smaller home, and the biggest lesson I learned is how wonderful it is to simplify. I got rid of more than half of my belongings, and I've never felt better.

This year, in the spirit of simplicity, I have chosen only five items to offer you in my online shop. The themes this year are Vintage Feminism and Vintage botanicals. Is there a connection? I'm not sure. But I love them all, and I hope you will too.

Several of the items are in limited quantities, so if you like something, I suggest you jump on it. And if you think a friend might be interested I'm always grateful if you pass along this email or a link to my shop.

Friends helping friends.
Thanks, as always.
Liza Cowan,

small equals vintage labyris chai buttons square

Mint-condition, 1977 button by Liza Cowan. The double headed axe, or Laybris, signifies ancient Amazonian matriarchy. The "0" at the top turns it into a women's symbol. Inside the "0" is a Star of David, symbol of Judaism. Inside the star is the letter/number "chai" or 18, a powerful Jewish good luck emblem.
