Vintage Style Rhinestone Jewellery

Sometimes I just like to appreciate the sparkle that rhinestones bring! And the inspiration! Specially vintage rhinestones. There's something about the old packages and envelopes that shield the crystal glass... All the cuts and colors, many that are not made anymore.

Vintage Style Bridal Hair Comb with Rhinestones and Pearls

This dainty and gorgeous bridal hair comb looks like a dream. Feminine, romantic, delicate...

Bridal Hair comb with Rhinestones and Pearls

Making jewellery for bridal occasion is such a treat! For the wedding I can make something festive, sweet and sparkly with abundant of vintage glass pearls... Throughout my jewellery making there has been one special hair comb that proved to be popular among the brides. The basic design is simple - a flower motif with two wired branches on both sides. 

Bridal hair comb reinvented!

Vintage jewellery materials are always limited, so every now and then I need to reinvent the design. This time I added vintage bronze colored glass beads I got from France to the bridal hair comb. Even though so tiny they have been faceted!

New addition to these bridal hair comb design
is the bronze colored tiny beads that add a bit of glamour.

Materials in this bridal hair comb are:
*vintage Swarovski rhinestones
*vintage handmade glass pearls, made in Japan
*vintage small glass pearls I got from France
*vintage bronze colored tiny faceted beads I got from France
*new copper plated metal components

Jewellery Challenge: Bridal Hair Comb in Silver Finish

Here's the result of the jewellery challenge. A bridal hair comb in silver finish. I used vintage glass pearls, tiny seed beads and Swarovski rhinestones.

This comb is available as special request via email. See more from Etsy shop: Hair Accessories.

Siin on väljakutse tulemus. Pruudi juuksekamm hõbedase viimistlusega. Kasutasin vintage klaaspärleid, väikeseid seemnehelmeid ning Swarovski kristalle.

Selline juuksekamm on ainult eritellimusel (kirjuta). Vaata ka teisi juukse aksessuaare Etsyst.

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.

Bridal Hair Accessories from Winter Wonderland

I was able to make a hair comb using these vintage glass leaves. These leaves have such delicate and fine pattern that it seems almost as if these were real. Frozen.

I combined these leaves with Czech seed beads and antique French Prosser beads in oval and round shapes.

 Bridal hair comb is made from vintage glass leaves, Czech seed beads

 and antique French Prosser beads

 This would look fabulous in vintage style winter wedding!

Small Swarovski crystals are gathered in the center of the comb

with few rhinestones sparkling in the branches.

Kasutasin neid vanu lehekesi dekorattivses juuksekammis. Nendel lehtedel on nõnda õrn ja peenike muster, et need paistavad olevat nagu päris. Jäätunud.

Ma kombineerisin neid lehti Tšehhi seemnehelmestega ja antiiksete ümmarguste ja ovaalsete Prosser helmestega Prantsusmaalt.
