Free Styling

 

With summer in full swing, I took a little break from blogging last week and spent a bit of extra time with family.  I also enjoyed a (rainy!) Sunday at the flea market hunting for interesting new treasures to play with.  This week I offer you some 'free styling' designs... no particular theme, just some newfound (old) objects upcycled into jewelry that I hope will make you smile.  :)

 

These 'roman chandelier' earrings were quickly snatched up by a local friend of mine!  ;)

 

 

Silver plated sacred heart charms accent vintage rhinestones in these 'corazon' earrings.

 

 

On reserve for a good customer is this vintage prayer card necklace, which I named 'the gift' specifically for her.  ;)

 

 

I just love this vintage Notre Dame brooch I got from a European dealer; I knew it would make the perfect centerpiece for a bracelet when I saw it!

 

 

I designed this tribute to the Arc de Triumph to be worn several different ways, with a removable pendant that can be attached at various points of the necklace, or removed altogether.

 

 

Looove this antique watch chain and its tassel fob!

 

 

And now for some more earrings...!

 

 

Simple yet elegant rhinestone drops.

 

 

A black and white vintage cameo locket with velvet and an old tintype inside reeks of dark sophistication.

 

 

I hope you've enjoyed 'free styling' with me today!  Now it's back to the drawing board to dream up some new ideas for next time... x o
