Le Cadeau means "the gift".

Another vintage up cycled necklace:

more Baroque...

It all starts with some not-so-attractive components...

...and ends with something beautiful!

If it ain't Baroque don't fix it!

Wanting to purge, I've been digging deep into my supplies & materials.  

It's been great because I've been pushing myself out of my aesthetic comfort zone, 

using elements I wouldn't ordinarily use.

Here are two necklaces I've just completed using the above components.

Baroque, right?

Macy's trunk show, 02December 2011
Busy day at Macy's yesterday, thanks to "Friends & Family" 25% off coupons.  People were out shopping!
Here's my display.  I was happy with how it laid out, despite the challenge of having only 36" to work with. 2 racks, one holding Jon Langford acrylic pendants, the other holding vintage found image acrylic pendants.
