Santa Rosa ($38)

This necklace is made of glass beads and a real rose that has been dipped in epoxy to preserve it forever. I'm enjoying the first week of spring we have had here, so I thought it was appropriate! I will be busy with finals for the rest of the week so this is going to be my only post. Have a great one!

Pasadena ($42)

Jade cabochon, cloisonne beads, gold plated filigree and a gold plated chain. Inspired by the Rose Parade and the Craftsman architecture of the city of Pasadena, this necklace is a modern take on your grandma's Tiffany lamp. Wait till you see the earrings!

Lost & Found: Purple Passion

So I mentioned that I love recreating vintage jewelry? Here's my latest...I'm in love with it so I thought I'd share. This is a brooch of my mother-in-laws (I believe she bought it in the 60's) that she so graciously donated to my cause. I don't want to start family drama or anything, but I am seriously keeping this. No, really. You might have to fight me for it if you think otherwise. Ok, settled? Awesome. If you love this as much as I do, I have a couple of other brooches that would work in this same design; just let me know!

And, I can't take all of the credit. Thanks to my sister for helping me work out the kinks and for modeling!
