I'm not sure exactly why, but autumn in New England always seems to bring out the vintage and antique lover in me. Maybe it's the rich, earthy hues or the fact that it's the time of year that I actually have some time to go antiquing! Here is an example of what I have been working on recently...lots of up-cycled, rustic, vintage items are incorporated into my pieces. This necklace is simple, yet unique, adjustable and composed of quality materials: czech glass beads, silk thread, sterling silver chain/findings and an antique steel cabinet key. It is available on my etsy site, valbdesigns.etsy.com along with lots of other pretties!
