soldered charms

We have added some soooo sweet in Pink Christmas Soldered Charms to our Jewelry Category ~

I love the simplicity of a single word or image ~
This is the first of some new mini charms that will be just that ~

I just wanted to let you know that we have some new Halloween and Thanksgiving soldered charms in our Jewelry category ~

But the best news is that we are going to have a sale like we have not had before on the charms ~ For every charm you order you will get 10% off PLUS a FREE ball chain ~

This would be a wonderful time to stock up on charms for Christmas gifts ~ Each one always comes with an organza bag ~

The sale will run through midnight on September 8th ~

I just wanted to show you some new creations that I added to my shop ~
We try to add new things almost daily so make sure and stop by ~

I have been having fun creating some new Soldered Charms ~

Here are some pictures of a few of our new Soldered Charm additions ~ You can see more in our Jewelry Category ~

I just wanted to show you some new soldered charms that I just finished working on ~

You can find them at Katies Rose Cottage by clicking here ~

I am on my way to Canton tomorrow for 2 days ~ I am hoping that I will find alot of treasures specifically more rose china ~ last month was awesome beyond belief !!! I am on the hunt for crinoline skirts, pink doilies, china ( of course ) and vintage mercury Christmas balls as well as anything else that catches my eye ~ they had the Christmas balls last month but they were $15 a box ~

I will leave you with some of the new soldered charms that have just been added in the Jewelry category ~ most of the charms have been embellished with German glass glitter ~ I just love the sparkle that it gives ~

Talk to you soon with some fun pics too !

Every Monday at Make Mine Pink we do a show and tell on our blogs ~

Last night after the house was empty from our Mother's day BBQ, I decided to work on some soldered charms and have wanted to do something for some vintage buttons that have been around for awhile ~

I just love old buttons because they remind me of my grandma ~ she always had baby jars full of buttons and everything was color coordinated ~ my sister and I used to love looking at all the different colors and shapes ~ Now my mom has all of those wonderful baby jars full of not only buttons but memories ~

These are vintage jars that I found at flea markets filled with old buttons ~ the button charms have glass glitter and the largest soldered charm has a vintage crystal hanging from it ~

The button jar charms are available in our jewelry category to tie on your own button jar ~

Every time I go to Canton, or to any flea market for that matter, I have something in particular that I am really really hunting for ~ I am always looking for old china with pink roses, architectural finds, lace, old linens ~ all of those things are so much fun to look for but this time I was looking for vintage rhinestone jewelry ~ It is so hard to find lately ~ I guess I am not the only one looking for it ~

I hit a treasure chest at one of the vendors ~ he had a bag stuffed away because he didn't think anybody would want it ~ it was full of broken rhinestone jewelry ~

I was sooo excited because that is what I was looking for so I can embellish more soldered charms with it ~

Then I spotted a vintage tiara that was kind of shoved to the side and asked him about it ~ he didn't think anyone would want that either ~ I almost bought a new one because I love them but I am so glad to have found a vintage one !! That is even better ~
You will see a lot of this tiara in my pictures :o)

I am not sure what the "thing" will be next month but it is fun to dig in those hidden spot because you never know what you will find . . . .

I am so excited about the new soldered charms that we are starting to add as a new option in our jewelry category ~ they are created using pieces of vintage rhinestone jewelry ~ each charm will also include a sterling charm dangling from the bottom and a chain that coordinates ~
