vintage spools!!

spool jewelry is the new black.

thanks to a very productive day of yard-sale-scavenging, i've got a couple of these cuties listed in my etsy shop right now, & more will be up soon!

i just love the look of these vintage wooden spools...i never fail to get numerous compliments on my necklace whenever i wear it. many of the spools still have the manufacturer's labels on them! others bear an imprint rather than a paper label....

a spool necklace just seems like the perfect piece of jewelry for a crafter, no? or maybe a pair of earrings, for the bold.

hey there - just to let you know that I'm reading your blog :)

good on you for doing what makes you happy! I'm doing the same after too many years doing other stuff, I'm now creating full-time yeah! Not making much money yet, but being an artist is soooo satisfying!

hope your jewellery goes well - enjoy!

best wishes, Rache x
