Using Vintage Jewelry

I find using vintage jewelry in my creations so satisfying. Not only am I using something from the past, but also creating a little part of true history. I research past era bridal veils and discover that many of them contained pieces of beautiful jewelry. My favorite of course in rhinestone broaches. I collect anything i can come across and have such fun designing pieces. SO..if you come across a piece of history, think of the story behind it. Ive just completed a couple pieces including antique broaches. My newest photo is of one of these pieces that just sold yesterday to a wonderful young bride in Canada!!!!

Portland Bridal Show

Portland Bridal show is coming in January. I am currently waiting to see if their is space for me as this will be my first year there. This is a huge 4 day event. I attended it once and was honestly discouraged at the fact that their were hardly any booths there selling a product. Mostly it was for info on whats available to brides. I disagree with this somewhat as I feel their should be an equal mixture of both. My friend and I went their hoping to find things for her wedding and their was nothing. I will hopefully be there with over 100 different styles of veils, fascinators, birdcages etc...Hope to see you all there to.

awesome.
I had a great time at the beach...scoured shops old and new to find perfect items. Ended up coming away with some vintage earrings of which i've made two different fascinators already and a gorgeous Starburst Vintage rhinestone broach. I will be coming up with something special for it soon. Right now I'm working on a tulled beaded bridal shawl of which the vanilla rose fascinator works beautifully with. Its so wonderful designing and then creating my visions. Hope you like these new couple pieces. Convo for any questions or orders..
