Heather Rose Jewelry~Vintage Brass Jewelry
I have been working with a new metal~Vintage Brass. The materials are a bit more expensive, but I just love the way the pieces turn out, they have an Old antique appearance. I am always meaning to make a smaller style of bracelet, but when I start working they always end up being very FULL. I guess thats just my style.

Lately I have been making new pieces using new materials as well as vintage pieces that I have found at auctions, estate sales and flea markets. It has created a very fun new pastime for me and my family. We now have something to do on weekends, go jewelry hunting! It seems like everyone knows the vaule of vintage pieces now and even though you are buying something used you will find it still has a hefty price tag. It is well worth it though when you find pieces that are in mint condition. I just love creating these vintage~modern pieces. I will usually take the vintage pieces I will be using along with me to Michaels to search the bead gallery for just the right colors to compliment them.
