Photos listed below

The first two photos are of a bracelet I made for my daugher who works in the education field. A couple more are gifts, and a few I have made for myself.

I call one my cherry necklace. I copied it from one I saw in an expensive shop, $75 and I copied for less than ten. One contains old photo charms of family from years back. One has a real small lock with it's key. The lock is attached to half of a hinge that was on an old jewlry box of mine, one I had owned since my teens. That same necklace dangles a photo of my mother holding me.

The one photo brooch is probably the oldest thing I own. It is probably as old as 80 or 90 years.

I have collected vintage jewelry for many years. Some of the things I have put together contain a mix of old and new findings. The vintage jewelry that is in good shape as is I have been selling at a local flea market.

I have learned to dance, one step forward and two steps back, two steps forward and one step back

I have wanted for some time to share some of my projects. Here goes..... I am going to keep going until I get some of this like I have hoped for.
