FABULA Christmas collection is almost ready. It was a crisp sunny day, so I decided to take a few photos out on the terrace. Gogol, my dog was impatiently waiting for his walk in the mountains.
All necklaces and earrings are made using semi-precious stones, recycled and new chains, vintage metal elements and found objects such as a link from an old chandelier.
Who said that Brazilian tree seeds are only for tribal looking jewellery? Look at my new creation: the seed is set on a vintage golden chain with rhinestones, a bow hat pin and a pea-shaped green turquoise bead finish it off and, voilĂ , the jungle is tamed!
I was doing my habitual browse through my favourite blogs and sites tonight and, hey, what do I see on the EcoEtsy Team blog? It took me a few seconds to realise that it was a photo of my recycled black bow FABULA necklace. It was featured for their weekly theme nomination.
They are pretty fussy over there about the pics quality, so I have to say a huge thank you to the fantastic Julia Kobalz, who took the photo and beautiful Sara Dunn, who modelled the necklace.
Oh, I am so excited about my new Autumn-Winter (yes, already!) recycled jewellery collection! I am using a lot of vintage and recycled textiles, tattered handmade lace, brass and copper chains, old lurex threads, rhinestones (many of them recycled) and semi-precious stones. The colours are so decadent and earthy: bronze, copper, dusty plum, reds.
Recycling rocks! I love, wear and design eco-fabulous accessories with a past, re-styling, recycling, and re-using textiles, metal, semi-precious stones, unwanted jewellery and everything that can be turned into one-of-a-kind full of character showstoppers.
