Announcement    Random vintage finds and quirky, upcycled jewelry. I make earrings, pendants, and bracelets from game pieces and doll shoes as I find them. I try to use only pieces from damaged or incomplete games, or directly sourced pieces, like Meeples. I generally use newer doll shoes so as to leave the vintage ones to collectors.
I have been hoarding beads and bits since I was a kid. Many of the beads that I use are salvaged from beautiful broken things I've found over the years. Everything is scrupulously cleaned before becoming new jewelry and I always use new, hypoallergenic earring wires.
I love estate sales, thrift stores, rummage sales, anywhere I can look through piles of "stuff". I often list vintage bits and pieces as I find them if I think someone might want it. I'm always up for interesting trades. I'm especially always looking to swap Scrabble tiles with my fellow Etsians. If you only use the reverse sides in your work, I always have plenty of A, E, I, O to trade for C, J, K, P, V, F, G, M, B and other consonants.
Thank you for visiting my shop! Please consider browsing around - there is usually no extra shipping charge for additional purchases no matter how many things you find.
