More vintage Swarovski crystals!

If you missed my newsletter post the first time around, have a read here. It's really interesting to learn about the history of these fantastic, sparkly, and rare jewels!

If you're going to be attending Got Craft or One of a Kind this December, keep your eyes peeled for the display shown below, it will have all of my vintage discontinued Swarovski earrings.

The Out of Hand market in Victoria nearly cleaned me out of my earring stock, but luckily I have time to make more pretties for both upcoming markets! Off to the studio...

before I made jewelry...


I was really into photography. Especially so called "toy" camera photography. Lomos, Holgas, Dianas...

I haven't checked my old lomohome for years and I just remembered about it. Lo and behold, it's STILL up!

Enjoy!

Gold Fill vs. Gold Plate?


Here's a link to my latest newsletter, in which I describe the difference between gold fill and gold plate. Sorry, the anchor necklace featured has been snapped up already!

new work


I've been really into heavy, bold, multi-chain necklaces lately.





And I love the contrast of the slightly utilitarian brass chain with the more classic faux pearls.



And how about this contrast? Rusty, paint peeled escutcheons with beautiful glass faux pearls.


Those escutcheons are some of my treasures from the Portland Antiques Expo.








So this is new, this "buy it now' button. Just in case you fall in love with these earrings! The final price reflects the cost of the earrings ($65.00) + Shipping ($4.00) + HST ($8.28) = $77.28
