Something old................
I just finished this pretty bracelet, using some fabulous vintage glass and rhinestone buttons, that were made in West Germany during the 1950's. These beads took my breath away when I first saw them, and I knew I had to design something very special with these intricately detailed buttons. So taking my cue from the beautiful white buttons themselves, I decided to create something, that a bride could wear on her wedding day.. I added in vintage crystals for more sparkle, some freshwater pearls and based it all on a beautiful sterling silver chain. I think this would be stunning any bride on her wedding day, but especially beautiful on a winter bride, with all that sparkle and icy white color! Definitely one of a kind, and it takes care of the "something old" part! This is one of the pieces that will be for sale in my booth at the Beyond Artisan Marketplace, next month.

That is stunning! It is absolutely perfect for a bride!
It's so gorgeous! Makes me wish I was getting married...or fancy:)
Oh my GOSH! That is sooo pretty!!! Reminds me of the crystal necklace my mom just took out of her drawer the other day. Hers is from the 50's too and it probably needs to be re-strung or re-worked. I just LOVE what you did here!
Yup, they are very beautiful indeed. Unfortunately, I'm not getting married again but I'm sure it will be a big hit.
