Leather Cuffs

I love creating these style of bracelets as well, incorporating leather with lace, Shabby, Victorian or Baroque style cuffs.

I love to also incorporate vintage and new elements, the old meeting up with the new, using vintage and new lace, rhinestones and embellishments.

These are few of my creations available at www.angelostreasures.com

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

Lace, Beautiful Lace

There is something about lace that I just love, it may be the elegant romantic appeal to it and to be able to
wear it with so many embellishments and be able to use it to honor Our Blessed Mother and Our Beloved Sacred Heart of Jesus, it's an indescribable joy.

Recently I was inspired once again to use vintage lace to create these pieces using vintage pieces as well including a vintage St. Ann Chaplet in one



 I used a small pocket watch face to add a beautiful vintage Sacred Heart of Jesus medal inside and adorned it with rhinestones.

Sacred Heart, Religious Medals Lace Cuff Bracelet

O, Sacred Heart of Jesus, filled with Infinite Love,  
broken by our ingratitude, and pierced by our sins, 
 yet loving us still,
 accept the consecration we make to Thee 
 of all that we are and all that we have.  
Take every faculty of our souls and bodies, 
only day by day draw us nearer and nearer 
to Thy Sacred Heart,
 and there, as we shall hear the lesson,  
teach us Thy Holy Way. 
  Amen.




I created another lace cuff bracelet, this bracelet honoring Our humble Sacred Heart of Jesus with His loving compassion to always forgiving and loving

I used a beautiful color medal of The Sacred Heart of Jesus set on stunning setting and adorned with Czech. rhinestones.

These bracelets are like having a shrine with you on your wrist. I just love creating them. It just transports my spirit into a very spiritual and calming effect that is indescribable. I used several Italian Catholic medals including a vintage statue charm of Our Lady of Miraculous Medal and on this one I use gorgeous Brocade lace and many embellishments

VINTAGE & NEW ALTERED ART ST. THERESE CHARM BRACELET

This is a very unique bracelet I created in honor of St. Therese. I created it with a pocket watch creating a shrine to St. Therese, including Hail Marys from a broken rosary and rhinestones inside the watch. I made it with vintage and new medals and charms with a nostalgic feel and look to it.

I also added a Sacred Heart of Jesus medal, St. Christopher, cross, and Our Father prayer in brass charm. Also using vintage charms.
