steampunk key necklace/ lariat...


Our first creative endeavor was Renaissance Rags... about twenty years ago... where we would bring new life to vintage/antique items that had lost their way! 

Purses, skirts, vests and jewelry were repurposed into "one-of-a-kind creations" using found treasures at wonderful shops throughout Texas... and now we've made full circle with our "steampunk collection"...


it started with two antique keys...
 


discovering vintage chains and treasures...




jewelry box full of history... hand selected and crafted...

yes...
 it's handmade...
 because you're worth it...

GERDA LYNGGAARD and NIKOLAI MONIES... Danish jewelery designers


The 1980s were full of gorgeous jewelry designs!
I've learned so much lately about our unpacked treasures from that time!  Today we uncovered Danish beauties by Gerda Lynggaard and Nikolai Monies... stunning runway pieces that seem as relevant today as they were back then!

bright yellow, turquoise and fuschia... nothing better!
 
 
Gorgeous, creative and natural... designs that are timeless!  We are inspired to do the same with our mendlbarr creations...
 

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you!
