Vintage Redesign Jewelry - From Raw Elements to Fun

Lovely Paris themed front side with filigree background.

Back side of the above pendant is this pocket watch face with bird.  This necklace has a chunky gold chain and is of choker length.  Totally reversible piece.  Note the bird is a signature accent of Mimi-Toria's Jewelry designs.

Entire choker necklace.  This is a very showy piece.

Check out this large gold filigree piece that I found at Oronoco Gold Rush Days.  I found a couple of these wonderful pieces and used one of them in the above necklace for the focal.

This found focal was purchased at the Oronoco Flea Market, and turned into a new treasure to be worn.  Past life, a shoe clip, new life an elegant pearl choker.

This wonderful grouping of miscellaneous vintage rhinestone jewelry features the lovely center piece which was used to create the above necklace.

Notice the #8 and the cowboy boots in this photo.  Watch for them in finished jewelry junk style pieces below.

This #8 is now connected to the rest of its necklace, but this photo shows it when I was redesigning the focal part of this necklace.  The dangle that drops off of the 8 is double sided, so that when you move it looks good on both sides.  This is the front side.

This is the back side.

Check out the lower right corner of this photo.  This former tie clip is all done keeping ties tidy, it now has a new elevated position.  See below.

One of the cowboy boots has found a home on this $3 tag necklace.

This junked up necklace is perfect for Junk Bonanaza and will be available to purchase at this venue.  Notice the horse racing?  Junk Bonanza is at Minnesota's Canterbury Down Race Track this year.  Need I say more.
