Anne explains, "We are adding a whole new area to our shop. Vintage jewelry and vintage jewelry repair or repurpose items. I love jewelry and am forever looking for interesting pieces. A lot of times, I find great pieces that are missing a crystal, or pieces that are broken that have a ton of potential, and were basically going to be thrown out. I thought, instead of throwing these out, why not offer them for parts or for rebirth? The idea that such beautiful things were headed for the dumpster because they weren't perfect just bothered me. So, we're going to offer a large spectrum of 'perfect items', as well as, pieces that hopefully will fit into someone's vision, and they will give them a new life, or be able to take a piece from them, to give life back to a piece they already own. I can promise there will be lots of cameos, as they are an addiction of mine. I've also recently become drawn to micro mosiacs and have bought several to offer in our shop. They are truly tiny pieces of very intricate art. We think the new items will complement what we already offer and hopefully find a niche among artists looking for supplies that they won't find other places. We want to be the go- to shop for artists looking for inspiration for repurpose and for people who need that one crystal to fix their favorite brooch."
