Presenting my small ever growing collection of sparkly things. I set up a little photo shoot for you to show them off. I know using natural light is the key in photography, so I placed them by a window. I have been learning that my house is just to dark for photos! Note to self... next home will have bigger windows or more of them for lots of sunlight! We also have 7 very old large Oak trees surrounding our home which provides much needed shade in the heat of the summer. My daughter has named our home Seven Oaks because we have so many. I like that we have named our home! It makes it sound so grand and old fashioned! Well, back to my jewelry. I have realized over the years that I really like things that sparkle. Thus, my attraction to these beauties below. The three lovely pins are vintage and very unique. Perfect for a statement piece on any simple outfit.
The very large round rhinestone pin I just picked up at a local consignment store. I was so excited to find it and it was discounted too! It is so beautiful in person and looks great pinned on a black sweater or even a cream one. It is done really well and picks up the light which makes it sparkle very brightly. Perfect for a Christmas party. We actually have one this week and I plan on wearing it!
Whenever I come across unusual vintage jewelry, I think that something great can be done with them. They are so unique and made well. I then came across Elva Fields. Emily Wheat Maynard scours flea markets for unique jewelry and produces these gorgeous necklaces from them. I seriously want one of these pieces. Most of my favorites have already sold out. They are one of a kind. Gorgeous! These are just some examples below. Enjoy!
Have you ever come across anything so lovely?
