April 04, 2012A LOVELY HELLO
and HAPPY ALMOST SUMMER to you...
I so appreciate each and every visit you make here.
Splendid Willow Avenue
Could you die?
This blue, this incredibly serene hue
evokes the fondest memories of my mom,
my Godmother, and my childhood.
Did you too collect the broken shells?

Um...it's just not fair.
gems collected and up for sale now
Why am I drawn to vintage costume jewelry?
Because the pieces hold history
and magic in their other-era existence,
and I like to handle them.
The pieces need not be worn to be enjoyed!
You don't even have to carry a Birkin
to afford and store the stuff.
Costume jewelry takes up precious little
space on a night table or upon a lovely
needlepoint pillow.
The Enchanted Home
Get down, Tina.
omg, is this not trippy under-the-sea-fabulousness?
And how fun to collect your favorite color!?!
This particular instant collection of blue is
in the shop for sale so if you must have it...have at it!
How does this color make you feel?
Peace to you right where you are.

ReplyDeleteLove this wonderful color, so soothing so clean, reminds me of the ocean but to be honest most any blue reminds me of the ocean. It is always on my mind. I must take a look at your shop to see what new goodies you ahve added. I love vintage jewelry. My Mom has a boatload of it, I need to go and shop her jewelry boxes.

I just happened to "find" your blog and was immediately drawn to the vintage jewelry. Lovely color and I believe I have all of these pieces. I own well over 1000 pieces of amazing costume jewelry and i use it in quite a few of my designs (my brides LOVE them). Some pieces I will never part with because of their unusual color and style. It's nice to see someone else shares my love of these gorgeous beauties...
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed Easter.
Those pieces are the most incredible shade of blue!!!! You must have had fun collecting them :)
ReplyDeleteThese pieces are so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous grouping!
Not only is the jewelry beautiful... but oh that color... yum! I totally get why you love vintage jewelry! The old stuff was always made better - don't you think?
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Easter!!

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely yummy! What a beautiful post Michele. I love this shade of blue...im intrigued to share something really funny here...you know for the longest time I used to call this blue "Sky Blue" until one day I got terribly wrong while buying. Hahaha, That's when I knew about Robin's egg blue. What a way to learn!
ReplyDeleteYour comments add to the beauty...thanks in advance for your kindness.
