new project follow up... VINTAGE ROYALTY

In honor of the most talked about wedding of the year I thought I would create a couple of new pieces that pretty much scream vintage royalty. I decided to first create my version of the tiara. Not being a huge fan of tiaras in the first place I wanted to work with jewels that I do love, which are vintage brooches, earrings, pendants and pearls to name a few. So working with these things I made a headband that reminds me of a tiara. This project has given me a new love for wiring and working with metals. Me likey ALOT!!! Here are a few new pics of this ONE-OF-A-KIND piece. Find it in my SHOP to purchase.




Im working on a custom order for someone now in gold tones. I cant wait to see how it turns out. Stay tuned for more new "vintage royalty" pieces.

ADORE Alternative party

If you're looking for an alternative idea to a bachelorette party heres a great one. While browsing the Short North today I stumbled upon the sweetest little shop, Adore. They have items such a home decor, accessories, and knick-knack what nots. What's unique about Adore is all of the items are handmade and/or vintage pieces repurposed into modern functional "what nots" Just one quick walk through the shop and you'll be inspired! It'll have you asking yourself "why didn't I think of that?"

Even better I discovered that they offer bridal party options for brides who like to DIY and design handmade items. I believe its a package deal where the shop owner provides the craft materials and some food/drinks. Im sure you can customize your own party so just contact the owner HERE for more details. Afterwards there are plenty of great places to visit in the Short North. If you you don't live in Columbus Ohio, sorry you'll have to look for a place in your town that would offer this option.

new project

Im in the middle of deconstructing these recent found vintage pieces from the antique store. The plan is to create a one of a kind modern piece. Its inspiring just looking at all of the different textures, colors, materials and stones. I'm working with necklaces, brooches, pearls, rhinestone earrings, lace, tulle, torn silk bows, velvet ribbon and feathers. Take a look. Ill be posting the finished piece once i'm done.
