Designs by Vanessa


First I'd like to share a little about Vanessa...she has enjoyed crafts since she was a little girl. As you will see in her shop, she LOVES anything "birdie". In her profile she lists things she loves like, family, friends, photography (a girl after my own heart), scrapbooking, jounaling, reading (any good books lately?) jewelry, and so much more.

Vanessa has a simple but elegant design to her jewelry like this necklace...



Darling Swallow Necklace


Two darling swallows are connected to a lovely amazonite quartz faceted oval bead. The pair is attached to an antiqued brass chain finished with round 6mm swarovski golden shadow crystals. The necklace measures approximately 18" long.

These classic earrings are composed of 10mm White Swarovski pearls and wire wrapped to sterling silver jump rings and French wires. They hang approximately
1 1/4" long.


Jane Earrings

Vanessa also designs little cards that you can purchase to go along with the piece of jewelry you just bought for either yourself or someone else.

This is a set of 3 cards that measures 5.25 x 4". Comes with a matching brown envelope and is enclosed in a cello bag tied with a ribbon ready for gift giving or save keeping.
