Andrea is a vintage necklace to the core. Each bead is from a strand of antique beads. Andrea also has two different vintage pins, one a small butterfly and one like a memorial ribbon. They are both sparkly and eye catching! There are two strands of pearl beads, and then one strand of a very thick, vintage sterling silver chain. It all goes together very well. I was actually watching a movie the other day and one of the characters was wearing a channel necklace that looked just like this one! So, this could be your very own Channel look-a-like necklace, for a lot cheaper!
Vicky is another creation using a real leaf, preserved, and then hand painted with distressed copper. It is a maple leaf, that has a green/aqua look. I hung the leaf on a chain made of Rhodium. Rhodium is very similar to Platinum. It is a made of gold and then has an overlay that is silver in color. It is a very sturdy, thick chain. I then hand made another chain with silver overlay posts, with alternating red, amber, and silver beads strung on it. These leaves are the new hot number with all the celebs! Vicky also has an extended chain with the clasp so that you can wear it at the length of your choice. Vicky is $60, and I will give you free shipping with your purchase!
Minnie is a "look-a-like" of a recent necklace Valerie. I really like the look of getting together a bunch of different types of beads and vintage buttons, and them throwing them all together into a necklace. It is kind of like a plethora of whatever I thought looked cool together! In Minnie there are two antique buttons or pieces, two different stones, some vintage beads, and then I made a cluster of black beads to add some more 3-D effects. I was so excited to be able to post this necklace for sale on here. But, today I was showing my jewelry to a friend at her store, and a random customer walked by and asked if I was selling the jewelry that I was showing. Of course I said yes! She looked through what I was showing and then bought this beautiful Minnie! It was an unexpected blessing. I have been praying for the Lord for some encouragement in my business, and I would say that that was encouragement! This is the 2nd necklace of this style that I have sold the first day that it was for sale! So... I will be making more like this. Please feel free to email me and let me know if you have specific color requests for my next "throw it all together" necklace! Here are the pictures of Minnie.
So I made my first bracelet! This bracelet is really neat. My friend Jane gave me these really cool stones and so I made them into a bracelet. I strung them on gold, sheer ribbon, and then added a few of my own stones to it. There are two different strands, but they are attached at two different places so that they stay together. It is multicolored and will go with any outfit! Let me know what you think about my first bracelet!
I recently had a close call with a scam from Nigeria. But, long story short, I made some other necklaces like the first Raine that I made that are now for sale. They are the same idea, but with different leaves that dangle. I have posted them here so that you can see the creations! I can change the color of the accent beads if you would like! Here are the pictures. The first one has a Maple leaf at the end. Raine - Maple is $55.
The second one has two Elm leaves, one antique gold and the other copper green. Raine - Elm is $65.

Raine has one of my new leaves in it. The vintage green, distressed ones are my favorite! My mother-in-law was over for Memorial Day and together we designed a necklace just for her. I used the 24k Gold chain, and interlocked links with dark green beads, vintage gold corrugated beads, and pearl beads. I hung the leaf to dangle at the bottom and then added a sheer, gold ribbon as the clasp. I think it turned out very elegant and perfect! Let me know what you think!
This past weekend I got the opportunity to go out the a jewelry show in Chicago. When I was there, I found some really neat new stuff to incorporate into my line of jewelry. This is where Phoebe comes in. Apparently out in L.A., leaves are all the rage. They are real leaves that have been preserved, and then hand painted with 24k Gold, sterling silver, an antique gold color, or a vintage green color. So, I have attached this 24k Gold leaf to a 24k Gold chain. Then I hand-made another strand of chain, with pearls linked in the middle. I think that it is dainty and sweet, and totally cool!
I got my inspiration for Valerie from a necklace that I had seen in a store. I wanted to grab some different looking beads that you would never think to put together and put them together. I used glass antique yellow beads, a navy colored stone, assorted red beads, an antique button, then black vintage beads on the sides. I topped it off with a black ribbon to add a little elegance. Valerie is $35.
Memoir is stunning! A friend bought all the different kinds of pearls at an antique store, along with the broach and earrings, and asked me to create something for her. This is what came out of it all!
I think is very eye catching! It is four strands of different size pearls, a bow pin, and some sparkly diamond earrings. The ribbon clasp helps finish it with a chique look. I sold Memoir for $50. If you are interested in a necklace like memoir then email me at tallyanajewelry@gmail.com!
