Working with vintage items and found objects has become my passion. I frequently shop for vintage pieces to work with whenever I find the time and post new designs as soon as they are finished. You never know what new and interesting little brooch, rhinestone earring, or found object I might come across.
I do not replicate any of the vintage designs so please be assured that those pieces are one of a kind. When a item is sold there will not be another one like it so be sure to stop by now and again to browse through new items and designs.
I also do custom work and would love to work with you to design a piece using your vintage or modern costume pieces. I have photos of some of my custom designs and would be happy to email photos if you are interested in working together to create a special piece using your jewelry.
I would love you hear your feedback.
Thanks for stopping by!

A beautiful vintage butterfly and leaf, combined with new components, creates one of a kind wedding jewelry.

These vintage brooches were must haves when I discovered them in an antique shop in upstate NY.

Vintage brooch and part of a vintage bracelet combine with new components make this one of my favorite designs.

Paring a pink brooch with this leaf from a bracelet, then combining new components, makes this one of my favorites.
A passion for vintage
I believe my early designing career began with creating dandelion jewelry. I progressed as I began to explore my Grandmother's and my Mother's jewelry box. Utilizing those bits and pieces of the broken jewelry that they allowed me to take has probably sparked a lifeline passion for recreating unwanted objects into something precious and wonderful.

Creating has been a passion since I was a little girl. I love the adventure of locating new objects to use in my designs. Creating fills me up inside. I hope it brings you joy as you wear what I create or simply explore this shop.
