I got up early on Saturday and headed up to an Estate Sale up in Cold Spring, MN. Once again I got a number of good jewelry pieces to repurpose. Unfortunately or fortunately, when I got back to the studio and checked out the goods, many of the rhinestone pieces were signed by Weiss or Kramer. I can't repurpose such lovely things. Anyway, here's what I picked up....
 |
| A gorgeous gold beaded bag, tag inside says handmade in Hong Kong |
 |
| Ah, some lovely vintage tags! |
 |
| 12 mini trays. Funny, I picked up 6 identical ones at a sale a couple of weeks ago. These are perfect in the studio for setting out beading projects. |
 |
| Oh, the things I can do with these! |
 |
| Weiss dangles! |
 |
| Marked as very early Kramer. These rhinestones really sparkle. |
 |
| Beautiful! |
 |
| I plan to use these as anchor pieces to some simple rosary necklaces. |
 |
| Unmarked, but fun nevertheless. |
 |
Kramer at their finest! This beauty really, really sparkles. The prong settings are so wonderful. You can really tell this is really high end. The necklace is really heavy. Really :-) |
 |
| Unsigned, I think these may end up as rings. |
 |
| Oh, these were the first things I repurposed. I'll be posting my necklace soon! |
