Country Living Fair ticket giveaway!

Hey friends- I know I have been very absent here.  We have been on the road bringing JBS Mercantile to town's all over the country and trying to get our new website loaded so we can launch it (along with a new blog).  But in the meantime, I wanted to let you know that I'm giving away 2 Early Bird weekend passes to the County Living Fair April 22-24th here in Nashville over on Facebook at my A Vintage Affair at Haven Farm page and on Instagram (@jbsmercantile).  Enter to win now until Friday night at both places for two chances to win. Good luck!

March announcement. . .

Hello friends!  While we are very close to launching our new website, it seems that March has arrived and we still aren't ready.  I hope to have an update soon on our new launch date.

In the meantime, our current site is still stocked and be sure to check out our new home for crafting on Etsy - JBS Mercantile Craft.  We are adding new items every week and will continue to do so.

Please note that we have discontinued the Magpie Box.  Thank you to our loyal subscribers who have been following along with us through each transition!  If you love the idea of getting a coordinated kit of vintage crafting goods, be sure to favorite us on Etsy as we will be adding kits from time to time there.

Thanks to everyone for their patience!

Announcing JBSMercantileCraft on Etsy!!





JBS Mercantile has evolved in many ways over the past several years.  It seems as we have hit the road on the show trail and jumped deeper into the antique and home decor industry, the need to re-imagine our website and brand has become clearer.  But in the process of doing this, we hesitated to totally abandon our love for all things vintage-craft, and more importantly, our dear friends (that's you!) who have faithfully followed us for the 10+ years we've been in the craft industry.  And that's where Etsy comes in!
Welcome to JBS Mercantile Craft - our new home for all things vintage and vintage-style crafting on Etsy.  Here you will find many of your favorite Flea Market items from our current site with many new-to-you items thrown in.  Be sure to add us to your favorites and check in weekly for new additions.
Until we launch our new website later this month, www.jbsmercantile.com is still live and stocked with hundreds of antique and vintage items, many of which are one-of-a-kind and will ONLY be available on this site.

Stay tuned later this month for a complete undate on the new site and all of the exciting changes we have in store.
