Vintage Assemblage Jewelry, Designed and Created by Lianne Donald
So nice of you to stop by!
All of my jewelry has a past and is lovingly designed and created to last for generations to come. As I hold each component, I am taken back to a time when things were made to last. I can't help but wonder who owned it and what it meant to them. I believe each piece holds the story of its previous owner. I also believe that each component I use had special meaning to its previous owner.
I tend to let the components dictate how they should be used, therefore my jewelry designs are rather eclectic. Have fun looking through my shop!
The following quote has become my mantra:
"Creativity is not the finding of a thing, but the making something out of it after it is found." James Russell Lowell (1819 - 1891)
I chose to show pictures of my surroundings while I create---you can always look at my listings to see WHAT I create. I have an aversion to having my picture taken, I don't know why, but I do and always have. I'm just a little quirky that way!
