I was recently inspired by an article in
Belle Armoire Jewelry magazine to create this little house necklace. I chose a
Paper Whimsy face to look back out at the world from inside the little house and the word "secret" from an old child's reader.
After finishing that, I spied this little spoon on my work table and having the faces close at hand, was inspired to make this pendant. It would also be possible for me to do custom pieces for people with their ancestors or children and make them look vintage as these photos do.
The necklace above was the first thing that
Steph gave to me as we waited for her luggage at the baggage claim at the Nashville airport. It is a cowgirl in resin with ribbons and lace. It always is a conversation starter when I wear it.
When we got home, she opened her box of goodies that she brought and out came this gorgeous necklace that I had seen on her blog, but had no idea that it was intended for me. I love the colors and that I can wear it with just about anything.
She and I are planning a necklace round robin for the new year with a couple of other artists. I can't wait to see the results!
