Happy Valentine's Day!


Love is the greatest refreshment in life.
--Pablo Picasso


Happy Valentine's Day! Hope you spend the day with someone you love :) I leave you with pictures from my Valentine's Day window. Does anyone recognize that necklace on the "Cupid" Dress Form?


Have a good weekend! I'm off to New Jersey Wine country! (who knew?)

A touch of old, A touch of new


I picked up these vintage pins several months ago...and I finally feel the urge to create something with them. Maybe something for Valentine's Day? I know its tomorrow and I have made several pieces for it already... but there's always room for more! Plus some lucky guy who waits till the last minute can pick this up on Saturday! ;)


I especially the love the red rose ones...I'm starting with those. I decided that the dark red looked amazing with peacock freshwater pearls... add just a touch of red Swarovski crystals...

As you can see I left the pin off center, almost like a brooch, (which it was).


So there you have it the perfect necklace for you or a sweet special friend on Valentine's Day... or any day of the year! If you're looking for it on my website you can find it here. Its under my Aphrodite Collection - the Goddess of Love of course! I've also included the popular myth of Aphrodite and Adonis. Do you know why Roses are Red on Valentine's Day? If not you better find out before tomorrow :) Note: In person those crystals really sparkle!
Have a great Friday everyone!
