Our Hopeful Home: Show Your Vintage Charm Launch Party

September 25, 2010

Ok, so I MAY be a tad late for the party (2 hours and 5 mins. left in order to still make it, to be exact), BUT I'M HERE! Here to celebrate the launch of Creating Vintage Charm Magazine. It's a fantasmic creation, and it's senior editor/designer, Sonia Crouse, has graciously invited us all to be a part of it's first voyage today!

My contribution to the Party is a new necklace I created just for the occasion. Drumroll, please.............

The focal piece is a vintage cameo charm which was once a stick pin. I added a vintage pearl drop earring (minus the earring part!) and a vintage rhinestone ball, along with some faceted glass beads for added color and sparkle. The ribbon is silk dupioni.

Finally, the chain incorporates antique brass links with faceted glass beads and vintage bead spacers.

I have always had a love for all things vintage. And my jewelry creations have become an extension of that love. Thanks, Sonia, for being such a gracious host. And all you readers ~ hel-lo! ~ head on over to Sonia's blog and check out all the other bloggers who are sharing their vintage charm as part of this fabulous launch party! You can also find out the details of how to order yourself a copy of this beautiful magazine. From what I've seen so far you don't want to miss it!

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
