Would you like to take a vintage course into your home? On to Mariekke Vintage

We make no secret of it, we love vintage. Environmentalwise, but above all everything is unique and generally just more beautiful than what is in most stores. More beautiful colours, better quality fabrics; you name it, somewhere on the globe you'll find it.

Because the latter? The latter is the only annoying thing that comes up when you delve into the world of second-hand, and even better, vintage. The vintage Instagram accounts are now flying around your ears, 'outbidding' is a thing not only on houses but also on auction sites and one store after another reports that stocks have been replenished. Help, where should you look if you don't even know what you are looking for (yet)?! In comes Marieke Vintage.

Marieke Vintage

Exactly yes, a course that prepares you to be the very best vintage finds to detect. Somehow it feels a bit illegal, but... owner Marieke (not Mariekke, in case you stumble over that) dares to give away her secret skills in her course. And although this increases the chance that we will all see in an instant what a really good quality marble table or faceted mirror is worth (ding ding, can we also learn to haggle?) and the chance becomes even smaller that we will be the first who can buy that cool cupboard; we really can't withhold it from you.

That promises something

Okay, let's set some facts straight; With her course, Marieke promises to turn every dummy into a vintage connoisseur in no less than six days, so that you will soon have a clue during every next browsing round in the thrift store or at the flea market. Would you like to learn how to recognize vintage quality? How to really get one from one fake can distinguish furniture? Which vintage designers and styles are there and how can you find the ideal vintage object for yourself? That's quite a mouthful, but be sure to follow Marieke's 'Vintage' course. Because Marieke doesn't just have a sensitive nose for vintage stuff; With seven years of experience under her belt, she is a real expert.

So what are you paying attention to and register quickly. There is a rush behind it, because before you know it (March 8 to be precise), registration closes.

 

Give a little, take a little

Give a little, take a little

And then the how & what, because now that we are presented with a fat sausage, it is time to get to the facts. Through six modules you will learn (online of course) all the ins & outs of the vintage trade. This means recognizing quality, you learn to easily pick out the fakes, analyze some trends and, above all, you look for creating your own vintage style.
