WILW

I'm linking up with Jamie again for WILW!


I'm loving that today is like my Friday. I just have to make it to 4:00, and I'm free for a 5-day weekend!

I'm loving that I'm heading to the beach tomorrow morning with 3 of my best friends! I can't wait for some fun in the sun, shopping, and relaxing.

I'm loving that I got my assignment for the August market day. I participated last month and was very pleased with the experience. I'm in a different booth spot, so hopefully this one will be just as lucky! Now, I've got to get busy inventory-ing all my new pieces and getting everything ready. I learned a lot last month, so I'm going to be changing my set-up just a little.

Hope y'all are having wonderful Wednesdays!!

WILW!!

I'm linking up with Jamie again for WILW!


This Wednesday, I'm loving my new Vintage Finds Collage Cuff Bracelets. I have so many vintage treasures, so I've started putting them to good use.

I'm loving my Droid. I've only had the thing for a week, but I can't believe I waited so long to get a smart phone!

I'm loving that I got to see some of my college friends this past weekend, and that Kelsey and Gary had a beautiful wedding! Such a fun weekend!

I'm loving that I'll be able to go to the beach again next week with some of my favorite people! Can't wait for another fun trip!

Vintage Finds Collage Cuffs

I've been busy collecting all my vintage finds and grouping them perfectly to make Collage Cuffs. I just love this idea.

I've wrapped aluminum cuff bracelets with linen fabric. Some of the bracelets include braided rosettes, vintage finds, and new pieces.


This "Sparkle" cuff bracelets features two mini-braided rosettes supporting a gold vintage framing pin. The rhinestone details are redesigned and given new life as they used to part of a vintage costume necklace.


This simple "Bow" cuff features a vintage gold chain wrapped around the bracelet. The large gold bow used to be a brooch.


This was the very first cuff I made. This "Gold Flower" cuff features large braided rosettes with several vintage pieces. The gold filigree flower pieces and the larger gold flower with pearl center were once brooches. The two accent pearls were a part of a larger costume necklace.


This "Pearl and Chain" cuff features linen and chain mail braided together. The large pendant was once on a very unique vintage charm necklace. The two accent pearls were a part of a costume necklace.


This "Pink" cuff is so feminine. Two large braided rosettes support an intricate vintage pin and pink rose earring. The small cameo is a new piece that adds a pop of color.

I'd love to get feedback on these new pieces. I'm hoping to add them to my Etsy shop soon, but they are for sale through my blog. Please contact me if you are interested (shipping will be added to final price).

I really enjoy making these and have plans for several more designs to come soon!
