Vintage Pieces of Me

Vintage Necklace

Vintage Necklace

I love old jewelry! I inherited a lot from my grandmother, but unfortunately, most of the earrings etc. didn't have matching pieces.

So I attached them together to create this beautifully long piece.

The pendant is made up of and old clip on earring, and a broken cameo holder. I added a brass chain and some old beads from other broken necklaces and now I have this wonderful piece!

I don't plan on selling it because it is so sentimental to me.

I've only been making jewelry for a little bit, but this site has helped me enormously! Thank you!!

Hi, Katie, I'm your neighbour to the east (Fort Erie) That a lovely piece. I don't blame you for not wanting to sell it. I've done the same with some of my mother's and my mother-in-law's pieces and I won't part with them either.

Thank you!
