Shimmering Rhinestone Jewelry in Vintage Style

Rows of vintage style rhinestone necklaces and rhinestone bracelets - all shimmering in modest topaz brown and metallic bronze.

Mitu rida vintage stiilis kristallidega kaelakeesid ja ehtekividega käekette - kõik sädelemas tagasihoidlikku topaas-pruuni koos metallik pronksiga.

Rhinestone Jewelry in Chocolate Colors

My latest mini-collection is available! Here's a partial group photo of the jewelry. Cross shaped rhinestone brooch is standing on one of my antique glass trinket box. That box was the very first one I got, bought it from an antique shop in Tallinn.
On front of the photo is oh so pretty rhinestone necklace. It's designed to sit just around the neck. On the little mirror I put a pair of long rhinestone earrings in chocolate color. I'm in love with the tiny metal leaves! On the background you see long necklaces of beaded chain and long pendant necklace.

Siin on viimane mini-kollektsioon! Väike osaline grupi pilt. Ristikujuline ehtekividega pross on siin ühel mu antiiksetest klaasist ehtekarpidest. See klaaskarp on mu kõige esimene, mille ostsin ammu Tallinna vanalinna antikvariaadist.
Pildil kõige ees on armas kristallidega kaelakee. See on lühemat sorti ja istub täpselt kaela alla. Väikese peegli peale panin pikad ehtekividega kõrvarõngad šokolaadiväärvides. Mulle tohutult meeldivad need väikesed metall-lehekesed! Taustal on pikad helmekettidest kaelakeed ning pikk ripatsiga kaelakee.

Progress of the Next Jewelry Collection

So this is the next small collection that I'm working on. Those who are part of our mailing list (PS check if you're added my address to your safe list, otherwise it will not reach you) already know that the winter collection didn't happen, even though the colors and motifs were set, even prototypes finished...

But that is why this next small collection is possible! In yummy dark chocolate color and with sparkly crystals, this small collection is possible to combine with other previously made items. Here's some insights of the progress.

Reminding what materials I used: glossy black Prosser beads
in round and oval shape, various shapes Czech glass beads,
metallic bronze glass beads, Swarovski Smoked Topaz
rhinestones and metal components.

Here you can see motifs with Swarovski Smoked Topaz
glass rhinestones in different steps of the progress.

Working table from above. The motifs are finished and are ready
to be assembled together.

In this collection I use beautiful metal leaf-shaped components
that I ordered specially in antique copper finish from Germany.

Siin ongi see väike ehtekollektsioon, mille kallal hetkel töötan. Need, kes on end registreerinud mu meili-listi (PS kontrolli igaks juhuks, et mu meilid spämmi filtrisse kinni ei jääks) teavad juba, et talve kollektsioon ei saanudki valmis ja ka miks. Kuigi värvid ja motiivid olid paigas ning isegi prototüübid tehtud...

Aga just sellepärast ongi mul võimalus teha seda väikest kollektsiooni! Maitsvates šokolaaditoonides ning sillerdavate kristallidega - see kollektsioon on mugavalt kombineeritav varem valminud ehetega. Ülal mõned pildiklõpsud tööst.

Are You Coming to My Atelier?

Yes, I suppose the word "atelier" is bigger than the space I like to call this way... But you asked and that's what you'll get! NB if you haven't connected with our "club" then enter your name and email and hit the subscribe button on left! Since the email-list enables you to ask questions and take a part of this blog and jewelry making then some info is secret and visible only to subscribers! Club members will receive a link to visual tour in my atelier at the end of February.

Here's a sneak peek at a sorting tray with pink beads.
In my visual tour you'll see more of those :)

Ma nimetan oma ehtevalmistamise-pesa ateljeeks, kuigi suurust sellel palju pole... Aga huvi on tuntud sellegipoolest! NB Kui sa pole veel "klubiga" liitunud, siis pane oma nimi ja email ning vajuta subscribe vasakul tulbas! Kui oled meililistis, siis see võimaldab sul küsida küsimusi ja kaasa lüüa selle blogi postituste ja ehete tegemisel ning osa infost on nähtav ainult meililisti tellijatele! Kirjad on mul ingliskeelsed, kuid eestikeelsele küsimusele vastan ju ikka eesti keeles ;) Veebruari lõpus saadan sulle lingi, kus saab piltide näol teha väikese eksursiooni.

Grey Bridesmaid Hair Comb

I recently got an order for grey bridesmaid hair comb. And it's absolutely awesome because the usual response for people when hearing about grey jewelry is lifting an eyebrow and asking: "Grey? Really? Who would want grey jewelry?".

But it is such a great color, especially for bridesmaids! Bridesmaids don't always have to be dressed into baby pink or blue. There is a more mature option when choosing smoky light grey. It could be with a hint of blue or purple. Bridesmaid dress like that would later be used as a classy evening dress!

So I'm always happy to see customers ask for grey jewelry! Here's a making of grey bridesmaid hair comb in photos.

Materials for grey bridesmaid hair comb:
vintage Swarovski crystal beads in Black Diamond, vintage
French oval glass pearls, antique French Prosser beads,
vintage red English-cut beads from Czechoslovakia,
vintage handmade tiny glass pearls from Japan
and vintage crystal rhinestones in Black Diamond and Crystal.

The branches from glass pearls and beads are finished. Crystal
rhinestones are set and the center flower motif is about to be made.

Here is the center flower motif almost finished. Vintage
handmade glass pearls from Japan are surrounding five
crystal rhinestones in color of Black Diamond.

Grey bridesmaid hair comb can be worn with
smoky grey bridesmaid dress for more mature look.

Hiljuti sain tellimuse halli värvi pruutneitsi juuksekammile. Ja see on supervahva, sest halli värvi puhul on reaktsiooniks pigem jahedalt nentimine: "Hall? Kas tõesti? Kes küll tahab halli värvi ehteid?".

Aga sellel värvil on tohutult potensiaali, eriti just pruutneitside juures! Pruutneitsid ei pea alati olema riietatud beebi roosasse või helesinisesse.  On olemas küpsem variant halli näol. Ja hallil kleidil võib olla nii sinakas toon kui ka näiteks lilla toon. Ja selline kleit võib hiljem kandjat teenida kui pidulik õhtukleit!

Nii et ma olen alati rõõmus, kui saan valmistada kliendile halli värvi ehteid! Siin ongi piltidena ühe halli pruutneitsi juuksekammi saamise lugu.

Small Rhinestone Brooch with Antique Sew-On Beads

Antique glass sew-on components are so little and cute that I wanted to create something that would also be little and cute! Here's a selection of small rhinestone brooches with the sew-on beads, Swarovski crystal rhinestones and selection of vintage and new beads. Some of these are available at Etsy mdmButiik shop.

Selection of small rhinestone brooches in different colors.
Available at Etsy shop section Romantic brooches.

Antiiksed klaasist õmmeldavad helmed on nii tillukesed ja armsad, et tuli mõte teha neist midagi, mis oleks samamoodi väikesed! Siin ongi valik väikeseid prosse, milles kasutasin neid õmmeldavaid helmeid, Swarovski kristallklaasist ehtekive ning erinevaid vintage ja uusi helmeid. Osad neist prossidest on üleval Etsy mdmButiik poes.
