Necklaces!

I've been having fun creating with some of my vintage finds. The first necklace is a vintage paste buckle, my dealer said it's dated from 1880 to 1900. All I know is it is awesome! The second necklace I made from a hand painted russian christmas brooch. I love the little snow princess on the front of it. She has little bunnies with her and a bird. What's better than bunnies and a bird?!

NEW KITTY

This is our families new Kitty..named "Tracker". He was found out in the middle of nowhere, just left...miles from a town or anything. We're lucky to have him, he's a doll.

Sneak Peak!

Just a few newbies coming in the next few days. I am sooo in love with these designs. They are made with 100% vintage..besides the little wires or jump rings.

I hope everyone has a great thanksgiving!!!

This is Erika modeling some of my current favorites that are currently for sale on etsy. So cute!

Porcelain Brooch Necklace

New darling vintage necklace I made yesterday. It has a ribbon back that you can't see in this picture (but you can see more pictures of it on my etsy page.)

I love the purple, pink , yellow and green color combo.

Mr Sam Malone

Sam shows up whenever I'm making jewelry, or taking pictures of it, or doing anything on the computer. We've had him for 18 years and I am very happy to call him my feline friend.

Recycled Bows

I saw this post on one of my favorite blogs called.."How about Orange" She made bows out of recycled newspapers, but really you could do it out of any paper. I just love the thought that this bow is recycled. Check it out! www.howaboutorange.blogspot.com

Fall leaves in the white mountains of Arizona

We had a great time in the mountains this weekend. The leaves are turning and the weather is perfect. I love fall!

Fall

Here in Arizona Fall means a second spring. Here is a rose from my garden. We're headed up to the cabin for the weekend so I'll get to see the leaves changing. I'm looking forward to wearing a sweater and taking some pictures of the fall leaves.

Mr and Mrs Fleur De Lis Designs

One more of the little darlings. This one was too blurry to post for the necklaces but I think it was cute of the 2 of them.

Fun with the camera and Picasa

We did a photoshoot today.

Here's one cute shot. For more pictures check out my etsy page.

Vintage Enamel Flower Necklace

This beautiful necklace was once a vintage brooch. I took off the pin and added a necklace loop, brass chain, some swarovski and glass beads, and voila!

I love the fact that the pin has some enamel chipped off and you can see the dark metal underneath. I know that when I wear it no one else will ever have a necklace like it.

This is definitely one of my favorite necklaces so far. (But then I think that with each new necklace I make!) You can find it for sale in my etsy shop.

Special Order Necklace and Earrings

This marcasite and Opal pendant necklace is hung by sterling silver chain. It was a special order and I had extra beads and chain left over so I made her some earrings too. I think they turned out beautifully.

Vintage Brooch Necklace

I saw this beautiful Brooch on ebay and bought it to make it into a new necklace. I have had so many compliments when I wore it out to dinner. :) Normally I don't like making things that match, but I had extra gray glass beads so I also made a bracelet and earrings to match it.

Miss Myrna Handmade Seed Bead and Swarovski Crystal Bracelet

This beautiful bracelet is named after my mom... its delicate, sweet, and beautiful..just like her.
