Vintage Buttons & Vintage Jewels...

I hope you enjoy viewing some of my handmade vintage button and jeweled wreaths!



The wreath above was featured on the front page of Etsy.com. I was so excited when another Etsy vender sent me an email letting me know she saw it!

I'm not sure if that is what led to the sale of this wreath, but it felt great to be recognized as having something I created be worthy of this honor! If you haven't had a chance to visit Etsy.com you are in for a treat! Vendors can only sell handmade and/or vintage items...it is amazing how many creative and talented people are on this site.


I was inspired by Monica of The White Bench to post some of the wreaths that I have created. If you click on her name you will be taken directly to her beautiful blog. This link features a tutorial of a "Friendship Momento" Heart Wreath, which she created. Such a great idea!

Monica's artistic abilities are such an inspiration! Her blog is full of her handmade creations... soft dolls, vintage embellished handcrafted bags and so much more! While visiting her Etsy Shop you will be able to view all of her artistic treasures!








Thank you for visiting!

Romantic Vintage Buttons and Jewels...

(click on image to enha1nce detail)
I really had fun creating these two heart wreaths! Usually, my heart wreaths are encrusted with vintage jewels, exclusively. This time I used a mix of vintage buttons and vintage jewels.

By clicking on the photo below you will see that these wreaths have been wrapped in layers of ribbon, bridal fabric, lace, a vintage doilie and pearls. I love repurposing with these romantic fabrications!

My wreaths are available for purchase. Please email me if you would like further info.
