5 out of 5 starsThe order was put into my neighbors mailbox by mistake. I am so sorry for my first review. Your ornaments are beautiful and I love them. My neighbor just brought them over to me 10 minutes ago. I am very very sorry. I love them and would buy again.

I love transforming vintage jewels!
Ever since I was a little girl I have been fascinated by vintage costume jewelry. I began collecting interesting and, often broken pieces, not quite sure what I would ultimately do with them. I have always been creative and somehow knew that they would eventually inspire me.
After graduating from college as an apparel design major with courses in theater costuming, I began working in the garment industry as a retail buyer, designer, merchandiser, and division head. My crazy, busy, career sent me traveling the world creating clothing for retail chains and garment manufacturers.
I really did love my job but, after almost eighteen years of this very demanding lifestyle, I wanted to spend more time at home with my family. I decided to simplify my life and started a small business from home. Having always loved my theater costuming experiences, I gravitated towards the wedding business. After all, weddings truly are theatrical events!
Since 1992 I have worked with hundreds of brides in the New York metropolitan area creating customized handcrafted headpieces and accessories.
I rather quickly outgrew my home office so, in 1995, I opened The Sequin Garden, a wedding specialty boutique in Bergen County, New Jersey. It was a lovely little shop that specialized in ready-made and custom-designed headpieces and flowers, as well as a huge array of accessories, invitations, and favors. I began incorporating my vintage jewelry pieces into OOAK bridal headpieces and jewelry creations. I suppose I was designing assemblage jewelry before it was even called that!
“Marcia carefully selects
vintage brooches, buttons, pendants and beads
and gives them new life
in her beautifully crafted wedding jewelry designs.”
NJ Bride Magazine
Through both advertising and a vast word-of-mouth network, we quickly became recognized and sought after for our custom designs and for our personalized service.
To my dismay, I again found myself with obligations that kept me away from my family. In 2000 I decided to close the shop and move my business online so that I could once again work from home.
My wedding website is Headpiece Heaven.com. I later added VintageBridalJewelry.com to offer my customized wedding jewelry designs as well as vintage and OOAK wedding assemblage jewelry pieces.
My Etsy shop, Headpiece Heaven Salon was added to my business in 2014.

And though I have had this Sequin Garden Etsy shop since 2010, I have just recently started selling my assemblage jewelry here.
I love designing these unique pieces. I hope you find something you love as much as I enjoyed creating it. Please let me know if you have any questions or special requests, and thanks so much for visiting my shop!

**************************************************
LAYAWAYS
Purchases over $150.00 are eligible for our layaway program.
How does it work?
We require a 15% deposit, but the balance of the payment plan will be up to you.
Choose the item(s) you want to purchase and send me a message with your suggestions on how much you would like to pay in each installment, and if you prefer weekly, bi-weekly or monthly payments. We will work out a special layaway plan personally for you.
After we have worked out your payment plan, I will add the details of your payment schedule to your private listing. You can then add the listing to your cart, go to the checkout, and be sure to mark your payment method as "OTHER". Doing this will reserve your item without charging you. I will send you a separate invoice for your payment allowing you to make your payment using Visa, Mastercard, American Express, or Paypal. We do not accept personal checks.
We will require a valid email address to process your payment invoice.
If you do not make a payment on time, but still wish to hold your item, please let me know. I am very flexible and we can work it out together.
If I do not hear from you within 30 days of your missed payment, and can't contact you, I will assume that you no longer want to hold the item on layaway. The item(s) will be returned to my shop and all payments to date will be forfeited.
If you decide to cancel your purchase, please understand that we need to keep 20% of the purchase price as a fee on premade items, and 50% on custom and made to order items. You will be reimbursed for any payments made, minus these fees.
Our Return Policy does not apply to layaway purchases.
***************************************************
DESTASH LOTS
I have had a few requests to take apart my destash lots and sell individual items at a discounted price. Please understand that it takes time to set these up, including photographing and setting up the listing, plus, we Etsy sellers need to pay to set up each listing. Since most of my destash lots are $9.99, which I feel is a very reasonable price, please understand that I can not honor these requests.
Please understand that I hate to say "no", but I need to. Sorry! :-(
