New at Bumbershoot Designs. New Nature Themed Designs With Vintage Rhinestones, Lockets, Vintage Beads

Here's a look at some of the designs that have made their way into Bumbershoot Designs over the last week.

This vintage rhinestone necklace features 1950's West German cuba glass rhinestones, 2 tone with rose and topaz glass, just a lovely combination. Like roses and honey.

I found these wonderful vintage brass earring posts, a perfect complement to the flowers and leaves in the necklace.

We have had so much rain in Seattle this spring, I was inspired to make this raindrop necklace with vintage bombe style rhinestones from 1960's West Germany. These have high smooth domes and look just like the big drops of rain I have been watching outside my studio window every day for weeks.

Matching earrings for this necklace too, making a demi parure. Both the rhinestones and settings are available at Bumbershoot Supplies.

For this necklace I antiqued a petite brass locket from Bumbershoot Supplies, and adorned it with a vintage glass decal flower cabochon, also from Bumbershoot Supplies. The flower charm features a 1930's vintage glass pearl stamen within a shabby enameled metal flower.

And finally in celebration of the Spring that has finally arrived in Seattle, I have put together this ivory- sage-peridot-milky jade, shades of spring green vintage charm bracelet. Some of my favorite colors and floral themes, all in one place, with 2 different earring designs available to match.

Until next time, wishing you a happy and creative weekend!

New at Bumbershoot Supplies. Big Vintage Rhinestone Jewels and Some Cuba Pears

Just loaded up to Bumbershoot Supplies some gorgeous and large vintage rhinestone jewels. I have more to come, but here are just a few...

It's pretty exciting to find big rhinestones in wonderful condition, these are lovely. Still to come are 2 shades of sapphire ovals, a lighter rose octagon, and a ruby octagon. If you can't wait, just let me know and I'll make it a priority to photograph the ones you are interested in seeing.

And check out these vintage pear shaped rhinestones, also just listed. This type of 2 tone glass is sometimes called cuba glass. In this case, topaz is found in the center and sapphire around the outside. Cuba glass is from vintage West Germany and is no longer made. Becoming harder to find, we have some beautiful leaf cabochons and some navette rhinestones in this type of glass, with a few more items just waiting for their photos.

Until next time, wishing you a great weekend!
