5 out of 5 starsExactly as expected. Gorgeous clutch. OhFaro wrapped this clutch very very well so it was protected and provided acid free paper to protect my item for long term storage. Above and beyond customer service! She is available to answer any questions you may have. Thank you!

I use broken vintage costume jewelry to make my hair combs and tiaras. I love repurposing and rhinestones are my faves. -

I take vintage beaded purses that need TLC and repair them. I soak linings, add beads, pearls, sequins and straps. -

When I first came to etsy in 2006, I was a mosaic artist. I used broken vintage china and jewelry for my pieces. -

I once saved a baby hummingbird. Found the nest, tied it back on the tree, baby went right in and mom fed. :-)
Like a crow - I have an obsession with and collect very sparkly things.
Hello! My name is Faro (pronounced Fair-Oh) I live in beautiful Mission Viejo, California.
I take broken vintage costume jewelry, and salvage it, clean it, repair it and then make it into something new. My hairpieces, tiaras and hair extensions are all handmade by me. The good stuff that isn't broken beyond any possible recognition, is cleaned, repaired and offered for sale in my shop here too. I also salvage vintage beaded purses by replacing missing beads, sequins and pearls and replace missing straps or chains. Sometimes I will pull the bag and the lining from the frame and soak it clean and put it back together again. I enjoy making lovely vintage items useable again, and I salvage all that I can in the process. My shop is called OhFaro, because friends said "Oh Faro!" when I started to make my hairpieces. I really love that.
I have another shop on etsy: https://www.etsy.com/shop/OhFaroBasement
Where I offer vintage jewelry in lots, clearance items and vintage supplies.

Faro
Owner, Maker, Designer
Lover of vintage costume jewelry. Many of my hair creations have some kind of old beauty included; I never toss a rhinestone that can be reused, it is simply against my nature.
Shop policies
Many of my hairpieces are created using salvaged jewelry components. I refurbish pieces by using harvested stones and findings to revive the broken pieces to create a fresh and artful presentation. Still, the items are vintage, so expect that to be part of the charm. I sell true vintage and offer the best vintage I can find. My items are not for children. Adult use only please.
Some of my hair combs can be a bit heavy for fine hair. your hairpiece should be added to your already styled up-do, after your hairstyle has been fixed into place. Hair spray will cause discoloration on some beads, de-foiling on rhinestones and will coat your hairpieces, so it is best to place your pieces in your hair after your style is set.
Please note: I do not offer holds or place items on reserve in this shop.
