Vintage inspired Jewelry!!
So with everyone going green and recycling, I decided to get inspired! I went to a thrift store last week and picked up some vintage broken jewelry, and have been recreating them with new elements to create some beautiful pieces. I don't even wanna sell some of these!!
The piece below is made with yellow vintage rose beads. The large rose has a Swarovski Crystal in the center and was the inspiration of this piece, so when I saw the vintage beads, I had to get them. Three strands of gold colored metal connect each bead.
The piece below is named after my BFF who currently lives in Dublin, Ireland. It's made with silver plated chain, peridot colored crystals and a dainty lil' shamrock, just for luck.
This piece is a collaboration between my sister and myself. She ca crochet pretty much anything, and made me a bunch of these cute little flowers, so there will be many more to come, as payment for a haircut I gave her. It's made with silver plated chain, "antiqued" beads, and pink crystals, plus the embroidery floss flower.

New Blumes!!
I talked to a shop owner down by my house, and she seemed interested in selling my flowers on consignment!! I've got a few more places to go and ask at, but this could be very good news! Below are 3 of the flowers I will be showing her. She asked me if I could put some Swarovski Crystals on them and make them a little more "blinged out", which below is my idea of "blinged out". Sparkles while still being tasteful.

Blume has launched!
I sold my first 2 Blumes last night to my awesome client of 4+ years, Stacey!
She loved my messy lil bun and Blume and asked me to show her how, and in less than 30 seconds, she had the cutest lil messy updo that looked like it took some effort.
Honestly, it was such an awesome feeling, and I'm soooo jazzed about it.
