Custom Grace Kelly Bracelet

I recently had the pleasure of creating this piece for a fabulous customer!  She contacted me to ask if I could recreate the Grace Kelly bracelet from the movie "Rear Window" and use all hand-picked lockets.  After many Etsy and Ebay searching, (and only one "locket" purchased that wasn't actually a locket)...this is what we came up with!

She did a fabulous job designing this piece, and I really enjoyed making it.  If you're eyeing that irresistible bee locket, you can find it here as a gorgeous and very unique necklace.

Thank you Jan for all of your patience and hard work putting this together!  You were a joy to work with!

Vintage Grace Kelly Inspired Bracelet for Someone Very Special

One of my very best friends called me several months ago.  She had just watched The movie, "Rear Window" and absolutely fell in love with Grace Kelly's pearl bracelet.  I recreated it for her, with my own touch of course.

Champagne pearls are mixed with 2 matte gold plated leaves, a gray gem wrapped in gold, and a matte gold plated branch.  Classic beauty with a twist, a lot like my best friend Kelly.  

Wishing Kelly a happy happy birthday!!!  You are so precious to me!

Now Available - Dangle Earrings!!

I've been wanting to add dangle earrings to my shop for years now, and recently had a custom request which gave me that extra push I needed to just do it!  I have to admit, I love them and wish I'd done it sooner!

The backs are silver plated leverback earrings and can be ordered for any normal size earring on my site (just not the mini's or those of you who love the huge ones).

 

Thank you for reading!  I hope you're having a fabulous day!

These are a few of my favorite things...

DIY Baby Shoes

I spent hours searching for the perfect baby gift to welcome a very special little girl into the world, and finally came across this baby shoe pattern from sewingwithme7 on Etsy.  I love personalized handmade gifts, so this was just perfect!  

I used Anna Maria Horner's "Square Dance" fabric, which is 100% cotton voile and gives these little booties an asian flare. They are extremely soft and flexible, I may just have to make myself a pair! 

The Waterlily Clutch

The waterlily is my newest clutch style!  I finished it yesterday and am getting ready to package it up to ship to the fabulous Summer Studio in Avalon, NJ where it will be available for purchase.  Before I boxed it up, of course I had to snap a few pictures to share!

These petals were carefully cut and hand sewn, then secured with a bit of liquid stitch just to be sure they stay where they should.

I got to use my very first label in this bag, it makes me feel so official!

I love how sweet and simple this clutch is, and also that it will go with anything.  I think it would make the perfect wedding day clutch!

If you would like to purchase this clutch or one like it, please convo me here or message me on my facebook page.
