What Makes a Nice Gift?

Have a drawer full of old jewelry?

Do you have pieces of jewelry that belonged to a family member? A prized piece from your Grandmother might be something you would love to wear, but maybe it is a brooch and you don't pin those on your clothing. How about making it into a beautiful necklace. Would you wear it then? I bet you would. Here is a sample of what I am doing as commission pieces for clients.

"Family Locket"

This necklace has a centerpiece that is a locket with two photos inside of family members. The rest of the pieces are a brooch, a bracelet (the white flowers) and another necklace that had the aqua pieces and silver chains. I took the silver multi-chain necklace apart and put pieces back together in different combinations. That multi-chain necklace became part of four or five necklaces this person commissioned!

"Green Fever"

Here are several photos of necklaces created for this client ... six necklaces were commissioned from the variety of odd jewelry from various relatives.

"Noah's Ark"

"Rosebud"

"Here Kitty Kitty"

There is one more necklace being worked on .... and it is proving to be the hardest one to make work from a design standpoint .... So....

Do you have some jewelry you love but don't know what to do with. Give me a shout ... e-mail me at marshasavageart@yahoo.com and let's talk about the possibilities! Hope to hear from you.
