Alexander's Gift Necklace

~ SOLD! ~

I love finding vintage elements that add a special story to each design.  Stacking and Layering vintage mother of pearl buttons have been an obsession lately.  Sifting through a collection of buttons can be quite interesting...especially if they are from your Great Grandmother's Collection.

The Chatelaine Necklace

 She collected her odds and ends.

Elements that were left behind.

A sweet remembrance of independence in a 

young girl's mind. 

 She held onto remnants of heavenly tidbits...

that paid her way.

A Chatelaine made by a poor Seamstress 

 that can be worn today.

Upcycled Jewels

The purpose and function of each vintage object is important when recreating or UPCYCLING.  

You want to allow the previous essence to shine through and be remembered.  

You want it to reflect in your design and who it is for...

A customer may feel an instant connection to the vintage object that may transcend any REASON.

The Upcycled Jewel may spark a deep memory...

Interwoven Memories - The Seamstress Collection

The Occasion Necklace

This gorgeous vintage satin applique was found at a local antique store here in Berkeley Springs, WV.  I fell immediately in LOVE with this and instantly saw it as an UPCYCLED JEWEL!  How wonderful to find something so rare and fine as this beauty!

I have always appreciated vintage textiles.  The fine craftsmanship and their long history.  I imagine the women who sat for many hours on their porches during those cool Summer evenings...creating...making something that they could give to their families.  The love in every weave with ~ INTERWOVEN MEMORIES ~.  

In the ~ SEAMSTRESS COLLECTION ~ I want to preserve that vintage remnant that holds a story.  Vintage lace between two panes of glass and adorned with an antique mother of pearl button and a skeleton key...this keepsake has true beauty like no other...

Finding "the" Upcycled Jewelry Display!

Once I have completed a collection of “An Era’s Ambiance” Jewelry, I am on the lookout for interesting treasures that can be upcycled to display my vintage creations.

I usually head off to my local antique store or my favorite flea market with a few guidelines in mind:

What color of the display do I want to look for?  - Looking for a specific color helps narrow your search and helps you find your treasure faster.  In a large room filled with antiques from top to bottom, you have to be able to scan a space quickly for your hidden treasure.  I usually am looking for the color teal or turquoise.  A bright, vintage color that was often used on old farm house objects.

  

How should the jewelry hang on the display?  - This question is very important when searching for the right upcycled display.  If I am looking for a display that will accommodate earrings, the display should have the ability to hang small items from and still be noticeable.

  

What is my price range?  - The wonderful thing about upcycling is that it can be fairly cheap.  Your treasures can vary in value, but for the most part, they are objects that just need some tender love and flare!  If you are willing to put a small amount of time into cleaning or perhaps painting, another woman’s junk can become your extravagant jewelry display! 

~ Upcycled Antique Tins! ~ 

The upcycled antique tins are perfect for my skeleton key necklaces.  I love that my display is functional and vintage!

My marketing materials are as equally important as my jewelry!  An upcycled cocoa tin creates an inviting display that gives height and vintage appeal!
