I'm going to do it! Below are some finds that look great as they are!

This sweet little necklace I put together from all new
parts. Sweet and simple


       This sweet little lady is nearing the antique stage.
     These  were produced in the late 1800's to about
 1920's. She is very pretty in sepia tone.
  The back is brass.
The itaglio necklace has matching pierced earrings. It is what I call old/new stock. It has been around a good while but was never sold and worn. I have seen glass ones before but this one is mirror and the cameo is frosted. Very pretty.
The delicate "violets" brooch is vintage Avon. Very pretty lucite.  Another view of the itaglio necklace and earrings to the left.  Below are two views of a silver tone bracelet.It is another one of the old/new stock. It is much prettier than it appears.This bracelet has lots of glitter, a cameo charm, and a pretty heart-shaped clasp. Also below is a vintage Las Vegas bracelet that has 3D charms of some casinos and the words Las Vegas. 
I have been working on one of those free "do-it-yourself" web sites. So far I have to say it is looking pretty forlorn, but perhaps with time it will improve.I will share that with you when I get it refined some.I had been selling some vintage jewelry (usable as is) through a small flea market here in town but that is no longer available and I do want to sell these things I have stored up and some that I have put together from bits and pieces. I really hope in the future to find more and better sources for finding things to re-purpose but that all takes a little time. Some of the vintage items I have saved over time are Sarah Coventry or Avon and collectible. I will share these with you. You can contact me at sweetreview@mail.com if you see anything of interest. During the winter I hope to do a little sewing, perhaps baby things and I will have that to show as well. Hopefully by next summer I will have enough items to start my first fairs with a booth.
