Handmade, Reconstructed, & Love!

I'm a super happy little lady with my man.

He's a pretty great guy.

Things couldn't be better between us. :)

Anywayy -- Here's some of the handmade goodies I've been making over the past couple of days:

These rings measure 1" round.

( The little yellow candy in this piece reminds me of one of the Minions from Despicable Me )

Lady Licorice Candy Necklace.

I've got more coming soon. Also, I found this vintage black purse and decided to reconstuct it a bit.

Sorry for the smudges on the purse in the flash. There not there in person if you're just looking at it (does that make sense? lol) -- you can only tell when my camera flash goes off :(. But I added one of my licorice pieces on a bow - then made a pearl chain - and added cute little teal rhinestone flowers and pearls. :) It's unique/funky looking - I agree. But it was rather fun to make -- and there's only one like it in the World.

I've been creating some 'vintage' style handmade jewelry as well. & here is what is how they're coming along so far:

Deer - Butterflies - and more to come! :)

I would like my own home to decorate.

I went shopping with my mother today and she received a Tjmaxx gift card for Christmas, so we decided to head there. They have a ton of really cute furniture & decor for homes and I wish I could decorate my own! :( I saw plenty of things I wanted - but I am currently broke. So my mom let me get two things with her gift card. Both were $3 each.

This cute little floral tank &

This UHHMAZZINGG pink retro-style napkin dispenser! I got the last one too! :) This item literally made my day haha. It made me start thinking of how I wanted to have my kitchen look for whenever I get my own house! Also, my mom went to Lowe's because she's re-doing the dining room so it made me get all 'interior designer' like and wanted to design my own rooms! I want a cute vintage style kitchen that's either pastel yellow or a light turquoise color.

^^ Such as those. I like unique stuff. I don't want a normal kitchen. I want a cute, eccentric, and a one of a kind kitchen! :)

I thought this was really pretty too! But probably just a BIT too eccentric for me! Still cute though.

I want to have like a vintage ice cream parlor look as well! Ice cream signs and cupcake posters all over:

& I love tea sets and just tea cups themselves! So I'd have to have a cute little matching tea set for the kitchen as well.

I haven't been home much to make anything today + I ran out of my glue that I use for my jewelry, so I won't be able to create anything until my boyfriend gets me some when he gets off work! So hopefully, I'll have some new handmade goodies listed tomorrow! :)

New Stuff Added!

I've been making new handmade jewelry for the past few days. I have just been lazy and have yet to upload any on here! But here's what I have so far:

I thought the butterfly ring was super cute. It's chunky and big, but it's great! :) I can do customs of those with whatever sprinkles or candies you have in mind. I also decided to make some custom Initial rings. I hand-paint these whatever color(s) wanted and add a few rhinestones to bedazzle them. Btw, all my rings come on adjustable ring bases.

Also, I reconstructed a pair of vintage vacation earrings.

Before:

and After..

Not too much of a difference - just added some gold studs instead of the silver hooks & added a cute little rhinestone. I love bedazzling things :D I still have like 3 pairs of the regular vacation earrings with the silver hooks as well -- so both pairs are currently available! I've been slack on uploading stuff on Etsy - so not everything pictured is up yet - but if you'd like to purchase any items just e-mail me and I can upload them for you!

I finally took some pictures of the vintage clothing I have! So come buy them all! :)

( like the Hello Kitty/Sonic I have in the background? lol )

All items are available - but even these haven't been listed yet :(

I am completely happy and content with my life. I love what I do (making jewelry/selling vintage stuff), love all my little kittens, and I have the greatest boyfriend probably in the whole world. I love how in our relationship we don't worry about things (ever) and we could just sit around everyday and hold one another and be completely happy with that. It's just a very worry-free, positive, and healthy relationship and I just happen to be crazy for Joshua as well - so it's perfect! I honestly do not think things could get better, but they always do somehow. ;) Anywayyy, I finally went Christmas shopping for everyone last night and I got almost everyones except my dad's (which i'll probably get tonight). I was bad and bought myself a few items -- but hey, i've spent all the money and gift cards i've gotten on other people - so I suppose it was okay. I got a cute little romper for spring, some new bronzer that I was in need of, and some hair shine stuff that's like $15 at salons - but I got it on sale for $3 at Tjmaxx. :) I also got these cute little licorice candies to make resin jewelry with:

I can't wait to get started on some jewelry with these little guys. Too bad they aren't as tasty as they look :P. I also had to wake up at 5:30 this morning to finish making my sister's keychains. She wanted me to make her some initial keychains for the people she worked with for Christmas gifts - so I did. They turned out to be cuter than I expected.

 I can do customs of those ^^ if anyone would like some. :) Yesterday, I also got some Vintage clothing for the site and I found some pretty great stuff! I've got to upload them all on my Etsy when  I get a chance. But here's what I have so far:

I also found Josh an awesome quilted war blanket. I had to get it - I thought it was ridiculous and I love ridiculous-looking things.

I love it. He did as well. I may have to steal it from him. I got him all of his Christmas already and I told him he could open ONE of his gifts last night - but I ended up letting him open them all :( haha. I'm really bad at keeping gifts as secrets during holidays/birthdays. Oh well, at least he enjoyed them all.
