Romantic Vintage Chic Style Jewelry & Vintage Treasures

Total cuteness.

When I was approached to feature this shop, she hadn't yet added her holiday items and I'm so glad I waited until she did! Otherwise I might have missed this adorable snowman necklace which has instantly become my favorite item in today's feature shop.

Alyssabeths on Etsy is a jewelry shop on Etsy that specializes in vintage-inspired jewelry with a chic sense of style.

Beth, the artist behind the design of these pieces of inspired jewelry, has a shop that's stocked full of everything from the classic pieces like bracelets, earrings and necklaces to jewelry sets, hair accessories and a wonderful budding Christmas section that's quickly filling with beautiful pieces for winter and the holidays!

Handmade Crystal Jewelry by CrystalTwister

Handmade Crystal Jewelry by crystaltwister on EtsyI've been waiting a long time to feature today's amazing artisan. As an admirer of their work since the first time I discovered this shop, I waited patiently for the shop to fill with beautiful items and gorgeous photographs because I wanted to make sure when I featured them that there would be plenty to look through and admire. A true showcase of the artisan's work.

Now, I believe they have reached that point and I'm honored to introduce NY Beadworks Handmade Jewelry Designs on Etsy.


Based out of Long Island, in New York, this artist has a beautiful vision and works exclusively with crystals and beads to weave and twist together in unique, breathtaking designs full of beauty and shimmer.

These beadwoven jewelry designs are created using mostly crystals, other glass beads and seed beads and each piece is an amazing piece of jewelry that's sure to add a little sparkle to any outfit whether worn to dress up everyday attire or wear with something elegant and special.

Unique Handmade Jewelry by Luto Jewellery

Today I'm featuring a jewelry artist from Manchester, England! Luto Jewellery on Etsy is a little jewelry shop that's currently getting a re-vamp, but I think it's a shop you'll like to browse and watch in the future!

There are so many more pieces to be added and to find that perfect piece, this is a shop you might just have to keep an eye on as new pieces are added.


Leonnie, the artisan behind the pieces in this shop, started making jewelry so she could have her own pieces without paying the growing market prices of commercial jewelry. After making her own pieces for a time, she then moved on to making jewelry for others!

Her goal is to run a shop where customers from all over the world can enjoy her jewellery at prices that everyone can afford and, although her collection is currently small, she's on her way to doing just that! So be sure to stop by and take a peek at this lovely shop and give a boost to a new and upcoming artisan on the handmade marketplace!

Feminine Handmade Jewelry and Hair Accessories - A Rare Post by Leal

Stumbling On Sainthood on EtsyMy sister is a girly-girl.

I'm talking about one of those ultra-femme women that love all things pretty, feminine and flowery.

Having a twin, it's sometimes hard to stand out and be distinct while growing up. Even when your twin is of the opposite sex, sometimes this can be hard to accomplish.

In the case of my sister and I, there was always a very clear distinction though because she was never the tomboy type but instead loved flowers and dresses, hair accessories, jewelry, shiny patent leather shoes and touches of ruffles and lace.

Recently, my sister has developed this enthusiasm for pretty, feminine things into her own little business. Following in my footsteps, she's created her own business called Stumbling On Sainthood on Etsy. This new project has given her an outlet of creativity where she can express the girly-girl buried deep inside her heart and share that love of pretty things with the world at large.

In Stumbling On Sainthood, Linette sells a variety of feminine accessories and jewelry all handmade with care.

The shop is filled with flowers and seashells and lots of feminine touches all decorated by my sister's exacting little fingers and detail-oriented eye.

Stumbling On Sainthood on EtsyBobby pins decorated with flowers and roses let women and girls wear flowers in their hair and sit beside flower rings and earrings as well as barrettes, headbands and more.

Many of the handmade jewelry and accessories in Stumbling On Sainthood are ideal not just for every day wear, but also in use for special occasions such as for bridal or bridesmaid's jewelry and accessories, flower girl accents, etc.

If you like feminine accessories and pretty jewelry, or if you know someone who's a girly-girl like my sister is, this is a shop you're not going to want to pass up visiting and browsing around in. You might find something you just can't do without or that gift you've been searching for to give to someone special.

Handcrafted Artisan Jewelry, Accessories and Gifts - A Rare Post by Leal

MysticWynd on EtsyToday's feature shop is run by an artisan that I spent a great deal of Linktime with online. We are both members of the Etsy Bloggers Team as well as mentoring members of the Boosting Etsy Shops Team on Etsy.

Both of these teams are geared towards helping promote others and helping other sellers "learn the ropes" of selling online. This is especially true for the Boosting Etsy Shops Team, where Karen works tirelessly to keep everything running smoothly both behind the scenes as well as up front and center for everyone involved.

Karen also runs her own shop on Etsy as well. MysticWynd on Etsy is filled with beautiful jewelry not to mention really impressive displays -of- that jewelry through her product photos as well. In fact, over the upcoming spring season, I hope to take a few lessons from her creatively inspired displays and try to incorporate them into my own picture taking endeavors.

Instead of being organized in the traditional (and often boring) sections of "necklaces, bracelets, earrings, etc", Karen has set up her shop in a fresh and inspiring collections of sections such as "Angels, Fairies and Fantasy" and "Floral, Forest and Butterflies" as well as many other themes.

This shop is a terrific place to stop this spring to refresh your jewelry selection with some new pieces or just a fun place to brows and pick up a couple new favorites to add to your collection.

You can also take a look and read over at Karen's Mystic Wynd blog where they often feature new crafting ideas, projects, reviews and other interesting tidbits.... Or you can stop by and visit her on Facebook or Twitter!

Beaded Jewelry by a Busy Mom - BeaderBubbe

BeaderBubbe on EtsyToday's shop is ran by Agnes, a mother of five and grandmother of six who lives in Brooklyn, NY and is a member of the BESTeam (Boosting Etsy Shops Team) that I am also a member of on Etsy.

Her shop, BeaderBubbe on Etsy, is filled with tons of little baubles and beautiful jewelry that uses gemstones and other beads to create splashes of color for your wardrobe.

Agnes is always busy with work and family and many of her jewelry pieces never make it to her shop because co-workers and family have a habit of snapping them up as soon as they're done!

BeaderBubbe is filled with both classic pieces and others that are a splash of color and unique in design and the combination works! I'm particularly fond of the necklace that's pictured here in this post as well as a butterfly necklace you won't be able to miss when you stop by to check out Agnes' shop.

YOU CAN CLICK ON THE PICTURE ABOVE TO VISIT BEADERBUBBE ON ETSY AND TAKE A LOOK AROUND OR, IF YOU PREFER, YOU CAN CLICK RIGHT HERE.

You can also visit Agnes on her blog (you can shop and purchase from there too, in fact!) or stop by and say hi on Facebook!

Art and Other Lovely Curiosities by Christine Lindstrom

MaiAutumn on EtsyI fell in love with today's shop the moment I "stepped through the door" and took a look around. I'm not sure if it's the focus on nature, the subtle femininity, the clean and crisp lines of the shop itself or the atmosphere, maybe it's all of that! But, I've literally spent hours in this shop since discovering it on Etsy.

MaiAutumn on Etsy is filled with a collection of beautiful creations inspired by nature, imaginary places, memories, mysteries and a little bit of magic. All created by the amazingly talented Christine Lindstrom.

There's a variety of items too from original watercolor art to photography, a few beautiful bits of jewelry and fine art prints including matte and framing options!

And, on Christine Lindstrom's profile, you'll also find the wonderful story behind her inspirations including girlhood antics and miracles of how imagination can enrich any childhood... and any adult as well!

Halloween is Coming!

LotusMira on EtsyI know that it's still a while off, but it's one of my favorite holidays and I have to admit, I get a little excited when I start to see the Halloween items starting to show up in stores and shops. (Kind of funny since when Christmas items start to show up just as early I roll my eyes!)

In LotusMira on Etsy, there's a selection of items already up and ready to go for Halloween (aka Samhain). In fact, many of them would be perfect for year round wear as well as for this specific holiday.

LotusMira is ran by a talented (and impressively educated) woman working on both a law degree as well as a masters. Not just that but she also has a diverse number of talents from jewelry design and soldering to wood working and metal punching.

An admirer of vintage imagery, many of the soldered pendants on her site incorporate this into their work and I love that many of them are double sided with a different picture on either side. It's like getting two different necklaces in one!

I'm a particular fan of the bracelets, and if you like the pendant pictured here, I'm sure you'll love the bracelets too!

TO VISIT LOTUSMIRA ON ETSY YOU CAN CLICK THE PICTURES ABOVE OR, IF YOU'D RATHER, CLICK RIGHT HERE!

If you like what you see here and in LotusMira's shop, you might also enjoy her blog or stopping by to visit her on Facebook or Twitter!
