I had something special planned this week for a pair of art deco dress clips I have, while rummaging through my cupboards for supplies, you know how it is, you find long lost bits and bobs you forgot you owned, and end up concocting something entirely different, have you been there?!
In the early days of Coco loves vintage my main focus was on bridal jewellery, lets just say I have quite a stockpile of Swarovski crystals, I used to sell a lot of Swarovski heart pendants, mainly as gifts for little bridesmaids, to be honest I never really liked them, too shiny and new, ha ha- that was before I discovered the wonders of LOS, so all those spangly snake chains have been given the treatment!
What a difference!
A charm necklace using Swarovski garnet hearts, not forgetting the rhinestone spheres.
Earrings to match.
All the components I used in the jewellery above are all new, but have been given an antique look.
For this necklace I used one of my favourite vintage marcasite brooches, I left the pin intact so it can be worn as a brooch alone, I also used crystal connectors and garnet gemstone beads, I love the deep red colour.

I'm feeling a little link party love coming on :)
