Shabby Chic, Victorian and Baroque Creations

I have always been fascinated by these styles, Shabby Chic, Victorian and Baroque and decided I should start creating more of these styles and began using more lace and flowers and other elements to create such pieces that I love.

These are few of them, some have been sold and some shipped to Germany which I love the fact that these pieces are being loved.

All honoring Our Blessed Mother, Jesus and Angels

Newest Creations

I had been inspired to create rustic style jewelry using lead-free solder and it has been a challenge learning the process but I love the end result and it is an amazing experience.

While I'm creating one of these pieces, I get lost in time with each piece and I really don't have a plan or a design in mind when I begin each piece, I just start with the basic solder and it just flows and I am always in awe at the end result, like my hands are just guided and everything falls into place.

Here are just few of the latest creations

Catholic Virgin Mary OL Lourdes Cameo, Saints Religious Medals Charm Bracelet

 Our Lady of Lourdes: France, 1858

Our Lady appeared to 14 year old Bernadette Soubirous in Lourdes, France, 18 times from February through July, 1858. During the apparitions she told Bernadette to dig a hole which later in the day produced a stream of water, bringing about thousands of spiritual and physical cures even to this day. Mary pleaded for "Penitence! Penitence! Penitence!" and urged us to "Pray to God for sinners". She called herself the "Immaculate Conception"

This bracelet came as inspiration after having a dream days before that I found myself in a cave, which is not the first time I have dreams of caves and Our Blessed Mother is there.  In one instance She was surrounded by Rosaries and other time surrounded by clear crystals and this time the She was surrounded by what appeared to be moonstone the stones had a beautiful cloudy finish but shiny.  She was standing with Her hands folded in prayer and when She opened them, gold was emanating from Her chest, it looked like real liquid gold on Her, She was just so beautiful and when I tried to look at Her, I could not help to bow down in reverence and also Her presence is so Glorious that are times I feel so humbled that She would come to me in my dreams.  I felt so much love and tenderness and Her smile was so inviting that I wish I could have spent more time in Her presence.  

This is an antique style cuff bracelet using a stunning cameo of Our Lady of Lourdes surrounded by Czech. rhinestones and set on vintage lace and adorned with vintage and new embellishments including rhinestones.

Medals used are brass and copper of St. Benedict, Our Lady of Fatima and Our Lady of Miraculous Medal

Virgin Mary Miraculous Medal Pocket Watch Shrine Religious Necklace

I love creating these style of shrines with pocket watches because you are able to see inside and specially able to see the image of Our Blessed Mother.  Even though it's difficult to keep the glass due to the pewter statue inside, but without glass still as beautiful.

On this pocket watch shrine I added a beautiful pewter statue of Our Lady of Miraculous Medal, Fresh Water Pearl Cross and vintage and new embellishments including pearls, flowers and rhinestones.

These creations are a conversation piece and I love that because you will start a conversation making honor to Our Blessed Mother. 

"Greatest Love" Jesus Relic Reliquary Religious Necklace

"Greatest Love"

I asked Jesus, "How much do you love me?"

"This much," He said.

And He stretched out His arms, and He died.

For God so loved the world, that He gave His Only Son, that we should not die, but have eternal life!

~ John 3:16

There is no Greatest Love than Our Lord's Love that sacrificed Himself for the love He has for us

May His Love always be that light in your life

I wanted this necklace to be a bold statement of our faith and a reminder of His Greatest Love

by using a relic medal touched to the Holy Shroud of Oviedo

The Sudarium of Oviedo, or Shroud of Oviedo, is a bloodstained cloth, 3/4" x 21" kept in the

Cathedral of Oviedo Spain and claimed to be the cloth that was wrapped around the head of

Jesus of Nazareth after He died (Head-veil of Christ)

I used a beautiful black and white cameo of St. Therese with Child Jesus set on vintage lace and adorned with Czech. rhinestones and a beautiful rose

Inside I included the Holy Relic medal with a Antique picture of Jesus Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane
