Crazy For Fringe...

If you know any of my past designs, you know by now that I am just "crazy in Love" with all things fringe and tassels!!! I just love the way it puts a rock-n-roll, contemporary spin on vintage and antique pieces. I've created three statement pieces this week using some fine antique English and French pieces and have decked them out with some fringe and tassel flair! Here's a peek at the latest pieces I've created that are sure to channel your inner rock star...

These new pieces will be available later today in my Etsy shop. Come and visit me there. Have a great weekend everyone!

Hurricane Prayers...

Gulf Of Mexico, East Pass and Destin Bridge going onto Okaloosa Island Florida

Hi everyone....hanging in tight with the approaching hurricane. Luckily we are in the top western most quadrant of Florida, sooooo,....so far so good. But, still worried for my beautiful hometown and in total prayer mode for South Florida. I love my home state of Florida and we have dealt with hurricanes for many, many years. I remember evacuating when I was just a little girl on many different occasions. One of the few good things about evacuating is we always evacuated with fellow family members which ensured some good and nervous 'family times' spent together. Today, on this particular hurricane, we are battening down the hatches, staying put, and holding on tight. 

Oh, and of course, saying  lots of prayers too! But, in the meantime, I have jewels!!! Jewels coming tonight to the Etsy shop...

Brooches and earrings! Brooches are so awesome in the fact that they are so versatile. Wear them on a

 t-shirt to jazz up a casual look. Wear them on a blazer lapel for fall chic-ness...or attach them to a chain to turn them into a quick and fun necklace! Here's a little peek at what I have got going for this week...

Keep all of Florida in your prayers everyone!

 I will post any exciting hurricane pictures we might experience on my Instagram page.

Stay safe everyone!!!

Sweet Baby Steve...

I'm a little late posting today, because, to be honest, I have had an incredibly rough week. On Tuesday evening my sweet little chihuahua Steve's breathing went downhill very fast. By the next morning he was in an oxygen tank at our vet's office. We lost him the next day and I've been beside myself with grief and sadness. My heart is completely broken and I am so devastated....so I will be taking a few days off to try and mend my broken heart and mourn the loss of my little Steve. Be back soon...and remember to spend quality time with those you love now....never take it for granted....precious Life is fleeting...

I love you sweet Steve...I will see you again at the Rainbow Bridge!!!
