Vintage at CallMeOut on Etsy

Some neat mid-century jewelry from Monet and others. The kind my mother wore to her PTA meetings, and other special places, like church...

Is it Christmas Yet?

Because we have some new things to put in the shops... Above, a tiny antler tip on red leather cord. It's cute, and didn't hurt Rudolph at all, since these are naturally shed antlers found on the forest floor.
These earrings are my favorite stones- Carnelelian and turquoise. I made these with the powers of the stones in mind- carnelian invokes passion and energy; turquoise is a lucky stone which aids in relieving anger. What could be better than that? And the copper finding aid in transferring thoughts into action.
This is a mystery stone. It must be some kind of agate; it takes a wonderful polish! And there's a tiny tube along the side which has the black of the stone inside. There's a crystalline hole in the middle and some opalescent bubbles on the side- altogether a wonderful accent piece for any outfirt
Here's another agate with a crystalline inclusion. Perhaps it is a piece of geode. It holds a super polish and has both mystery and excitement in it.
This piece started out as a bead, but broke in half. Such an outstanding natural bright blue color! It's set in a cast sterling silver backless setting, and hangs on a sterling silver figaro chain. We just love the beautiful blue color of natural Kingman turquoise.

These and other outstanding pieces will be posted on our various sites over the next few days.. Hope you like them!

Latest Creation: Hand-embellished!

I've had this hammered brass bracelet for almost 30 years. Used to wear it dancing at the Disco (oh the stories, the stories!) It was made by Dana Driver, an artist/jeweler I knew back in Jerome, AZ.

Well, now that I've got a few years on me, and the Disco is but a distant memory, I decided to fancy it up a bit with some faceted red glass beads, a mother of pearl flat donut bead, and a foiled glass gold colored bead. I like the way it turned out, don't you?

It's listed on Etsy, in case you are interested.

Lookie Lookie!!

I bought some of those cute little flower beads- in my continuing quest to create items just like Etsy likes...

The beads were fun to use though, and I think they came out well.

Look on Shophandmade (link at right) for these two...
