heirloom repurposing…

Do you have any sentimental heirlooms but they’re dated, broken, or missing key parts? It all started in the bathroom, well my mother’s bathroom, I was rooting, hi mom:), through a drawer filled with old jewelry, and it dawned on me that I could put my tinkering to good use. I started by turning old brooches into necklaces, and lone earrings into rings. I even repurposed a solid gold crown from my mom’s * ahem * mouth! Since then, I have had the honor of getting my hands on some of my clients’ amazing old stones, family stones, old metal, out-dated jewelry, earrings left by their partners etc etc. I love repurposing sentimental pieces into accessories you can love and wear today! If you’re interested in this service or want me to create something custom …


Here are a few projects I’ve worked on recently… ENJOY!

Dated Cocktail Ring to Savvy Gold Band

White gold and diamonds are always a classic, but my client prefers gold and wanted to shake the dust off these family diamonds. We created a piece she wears and cherishes daily!
