My Latest Vintage Finds!

I am in love with brooches! I ALWAYS wear one! The garnet leaf is my fave!
Chunky Necklaces! Soo much fun! Found the red, blue and brass one for $3 in a thrift store in NYC!!!
Where do I begin with all this!!! Love the peacock earrings and the fish pin! The fish was another $3 vintage shop find! 

So I will admit, I am OBSESSED with vintage jewelry! I love going to flea market and searching online for unique finds. Here are just a few of my latest treasures :) What was your latest vintage find?

My First Home Jewelry Party!






In the past I have done many craft shows and flea markets to promote my jewelry collection. This was before I had an official business name and a webshop through ETSY. I never though about all of the expenses that you have to put out. I had to buy fixtures. Of course when I wasn't looking for fixtures, EVERY jewelry store was going out of business. Then when I needed them, none were to be found. I guess, that is life!

My aunt told me that she would love to host a jewelry party for Gloria's Jewelry Box at her house. Here are a few pictures. The event went rather well, I had a good turnout for it to be a rainy day. I plan to continue doing this, all of my guests said they felt very relaxed and had a great time. Does anyone have any ideas for hosting the perfect home jewelry show? Please share!
