myfavoriteplum's Profile

Bio

.

i work as a pastry chef

i enjoy making things, personal documentation, and the pursuit of vintage lovlies for me and you

.

i've loved vintage since i was seven years old playing dress up in my grandmother's basement.

sadly, most of her collection has since been lost.

so perhaps this is why i have dedicated myself to a tireless one woman search and rescue mission aimed at finding homes for the displaced fashion of days gone by!

come peek at my stash anytime!

you never know what you might find!

party dresses and wrap skirts and button down blouses and sparkly sweaters and embroidered purses and fuzzy coats and pillbox hats and handpainted lamps and flowered sheets and candy colored slips and the list goes on...

.

i make jewelry using vintage beads from the 20's and 30's through the 70's and 80's, combined with sterling and gold filled chain, wire, and findings

these beads are usually found in small lots, which means my designs are made in limited quantities, sometimes even just one or two

the period craftmanship and limited supply of the beads lends an heirloom quality to the pieces

i like to think of them as classic and timeless with a modern sensibility

.

due to the delicate nature of vintage glass beads i recommend storing your myfavoriteplum jewelry carefully and removing them when sleeping, showering or swimming

although i do use sterling and gold filled metals, the vintage charms are often plated and may wear with time
