Announcement    WELCOME TO 2024!!!!!!!!!! 30% OFF OF SELECTED ITEMS IN THEOLLIEPEARL!

Time for a change - WELCOME TO “TheOlliePearl”, formerly “TheGalvanicFlea”. I’ve been pondering a shop name change for quite some time now. But, it had to really mean something to me - Olive Pearl aka “Ollie” was my maternal grandmother; it had to be “old” names - what names are older than “Olive” and “Pearl”?; it had to be “current” - Olivia has been number one on the girl’s name list for the past many years. No brainer! We lost our Grandma when I was about 12 years old. I never really did appreciate her when she was here with us. She wore her stockings rolled down around her ankles (how embarrassing!), always served us canned jellied ham and mushy canned peas (yuck!) yet she survived horrible world and personal events over her 70 some years. She made so many “somethings” out of so many “nothings”. She literally had “nothing”. Her husband died suddenly during The Great Depression without a will. Everything - the farm land, the animals, the equipment, the house - everything had to be sold and for pennies on the dollar. She had two young children to raise yet she figured out how to “make her way”. What strength, resilience, dedication she had. I would like to have her back in my life. I wish……

Page to the bottom of this announcement to learn more about these fabulous shops!

Orders going throughout Canada and to the US include tracking and insurance. International orders are sent by International Small Packet Surface or Air (no insurance, no tracking). If insurance and tracking are required, please contact me for a quote.

Please if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact me. The following paragraphs will tell you what TheOlliePearl is all about and more!

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING AVAILABLE
TheOlliePearl does ship INTERNATIONALLY. Please convo me to add your country and shipping charge if it does not appear. I recommend International Small Packet Air shipping as the minimum standard of shipment for quicker delivery and to avoid loss and/or in transit damage.

LAYAWAY PLANS
TheOlliePearl offers layaways on orders totaling $100US or more. TheOllieP Layaway 2 and 3 month Plans - Items under the 2 month plan will have value costs divided in half between two payments a month apart with a $5 layaway fee added to the final payment. Items under the 3 month plan will have value divided into three equal payments each a month apart with a $10 layaway fee added to the final payment. Items will be shipped upon completion of the final payment. Shipping costs depend on your location and, if applicable, will be applied to the final payment.

OTHER INFORMATION
TheOllieP is well known for its collection of curated vintage jewelry and lingerie and clothing accessories. While the majority of its vintage items are vintage jewelry pieces, I regularly add scarves, men’s ties, belts, table linens, sewing/craft/jewelry supplies and the likes.

All of your purchases will be wrapped for safe, secure travel with Canada Post and your country's postal service. Most items will be wrapped in a way that is perfect for gift giving but if you want to be sure, please request gift wrapping in a note with your order.

My items are vintage, that means they are 20+ years old. While some items may look brand new most vintage items will have some level of tarnishing, nicks, dings, surface scratching and more. This is usual for pre-loved, aged jewelry. If an item is 100+ years old it will be marked antique and must be accepted in the state that it is presented in the listing. For both my vintage and antique items, deficits will be noted and should be expected and respected. Most of us never reach this age. If you are ever dissatisfied with your jewelry or vintage/antique item after receiving it, please contact me immediately to work through a resolution. The OllieP is all about satisfied customers and for them to have a wonderful shopping experience. As you can tell I have a great love of vintage and antique items and am totally ensconced in the shabbiness of them all. I hope you will be as well. Finding beauty and usefulness in aged items is so “green”, very continental and in my opinion utterly chic!

SheWearsOldPearls on Etsy
When I’m searching for beautiful vintage jewelry pieces for The OllieP I come across many sad and orphaned things. Rather than leave them behind I scoop them up and let my creative side run free. https://www.etsy.com/shop/shewearsoldpearls offers the results - my OOAK (one of a kind) assemblage jewelry. Some are very traditional in design, others are fun and some are dark and steampunkish. Visit the shop and enjoy perusing the pieces. I also love Swarovski crystals and pearls and gemstone beads and am offering current trend jewelry pieces which will become your jewelry staples and many are perfect for the bride and bridesmaids on that special day.

TheTrainStopbyMitch on Etsy
My husband Mitch has been a railfan and model train collector for the past 30 years. He has decided that it's time for him to share some of his collection with others. Please visit https://www.etsy.com/shop/thetrainstopbymitch for model train cars, model train engines, train paraphernalia such as magazines, signs and more. There will also be other collectible items included in the mix.

CozyColeCreations on Etsy
My daughter Laura Ruth Cole, is an amazing designer/crocheter/knitter. Her creations can be found here on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/shop/cozycolecreations. Beanies/toques, headbands, cowls, buffalo plaid blanket scarves, faux fur pom pom kits, cup cozies, hair bows and more are available. Also included are her original patterns for many of the items that she sells in the shop. SheWearsOldPearls is now offering some uber special jewelry pieces that will complement the CozyCole blanket scarves.
