Please Do Not Adjust Your Computer Screen.....






















I tried to take pictures of recent Flea Market purchases. it was cloudy today, and my phone has been really sensitive lately. It doesn't want to focus right (or it could just be the photographer....) I purchased these beauties from a box of junk. I love the one that looks like a golden sun with the blue stone in the center. it reminds me of Italian jewelry my Mother-in-Law had. The gold semi-circle looks like a Scottish Kilt Pin, and the one I took two shots of is a scarf ring that mimics the Cartier "Love" nailheads. I like that too!
The Earrings are small coins I found. I punched holes in them and hung the labradorite beads on the bottom. I am not a fan of french hook earrings I always replace them with neverending hoops that are supposed to be piercing earrings I find at Sally Beauty. I like the finished product! it looks very Temple St. Claire to me. Ialso got a gold french franc that has the number 5 on it. I want to make a cool necklace with that.
all told, I spent like $6.00 for everything I bought. Usually when I go to the Flea Market I'm disappointed, but I love the stuff they had there this time. I want to go back this week and spend more time rooting through all those boxes of "junk".
The picture of the "rose' is a scarf I found at the dollar store . It looks a lot like an Hermes pleated scarf to me. I liked the way it drapes around the neck. ( and the scarf clip looks great on it too!)
