A Tale of Two Treasuries

I am so excited to be included in an Advent-themed Etsy Treasury!  At the same time, I curated my own Sacred Heart Treasury. Here is a glimpse at them both:

'Advent Wreath' by LittleBirdWares

Vintage Earrings Become a Bracelet (Plus an Artist I Love)

There is a new charm bracelet for sale over at Graceful Leigh on Etsy. I altered several vintage earrings for this one of a kind charm bracelet. I then incorporated small crosses and angels. I also wire-wrapped orange and pearl drop charms. The pearl accents pick up on the pearls in the central repurposed clip earring. The orange compliments the orange tones in one pair of earrings used in this design.

In other news, I was searching Etsy for ways I could use a certain gift card I got from Midwest Maude and her family (also known as my Sister-in-law, Brother-in-law, nieces and nephew). While browsing I came across a wonderful artist on Etsy named Flor Larios.  Check out her amazing art! Her Flickr photo stream is here, where you can see even more.

Flor Larios ' Sacred Heart Jesus and Mary is for sale in Her Etsy shop.

Silver Tones

Because I am joining Daughters of the King next month, I will soon begin wearing the silver cross that all Daughters wear. I tend to favor gold tone jewelry, as you may have guessed if you are familiar with my designs.

Holy Spirit Medal

Now I have begun to consider more silver tone designs to wear with my cross of the Order. Although I do wear silver now and then, depending upon my outfit, it will be strange to don my Daughters of the King cross daily and think through different ways to layer other necklaces with it.

This necklace is for sale in my Graceful Leigh shop!

Don't forget, I have an ongoing 15 % off sale at Graceful Leigh. Now that I am finished with Thanksgiving preparations and guests, I am planning to get busy crafting again!
