This morning, my mailman knocked on my door, (much to my dog's delight and to my annoyance as she woudn't stop barking, which in turn madethe birds go off!) bringing a package containing this lovely glass cabinet:
Welcome to my ramblings & beautiful jewelry. My Etsy store is a place to shop for vintage, nostalgic button bracelets, repurposed vintage jewelry, and found objects; bits of abandoned history brought back into everyday life, along with contemporary styles using gemstones, sterling & goldfill. I love asymmetrical and one-of-a-kind pieces, which have such character!

New Presents!
I was so excited to receive 2 items this week to use as displays for my Saturday Market booth! Woohoo! I can't wait to use them. First there's this lovely spinning double-decker display from http://www.rustyvintage.etsy.com/:
Here's how I plan to utilize this lovely display:
Yay! It's the perfect display for my Vintage Button stretch bracelets! When I make enough to fill it, I'll add the top spinner. What a great vintage find! Thanks, Sue! Visit Sue's Etsy shop here to see all kinds of great vintage things.

New Buttons!!!!!
Wow, this is the week of beautiful packaging (that obviously took so much time & effort) from Etsy vendors! I was thrilled to open this lovely package, but first I had to take pictures to save it's charm forever!
I LOVE the sweet Bible verse attached: John 3:17; one of my all-time favorites, and it's nice to unexpectedly meet up with fellow believers out there :)
And inside that was another CUTE card with some free buttons stitched securely to a cut-out cardstock flower with a raffia bow:)
Inside that was what I actually ordered: 10 dark blue buttons.......
...to use on my stretchy, vintage button bracelets:
Thank you, Jennifer! I will definitely be back. If you want to see her kippyssomature Etsy shop and order some of her beautifully packaged items, click here. Here's a sampling of what's in her store:
