Who knows about vintage children's jewelry?

Was there a trend toward making perfectly made child sized costume jewelry back in the '60s and before? I sold a milk glass necklace a couple of years ago...toddler sized. Now I have a three row rhinestone bracelet that would fit my 2 year old grandd...

Instagram? Facebook messenger?

Does anybody use these? Do you actually get sales?I've gotten a couple of "invites" from fellow vinties via Facebook to use them, plus I'm seeing a lot of push about "conversational commerce." However, like a lot of online marketing advice, I'm leery...
