MiShel Designs: Autumn Jewelry

The Very Vintage Challenge that

Michelle Mach is having over on her blog

this fall is almost upon us and I’m basically stressing out!

Okay, Okay,...so I'm not really stressing out,...I’m 'twirling'.

(Those of you who physically know me just got a good visual, didn't you?!)

Any hoo, we don’t actually have to create something

‘vintage’ looking with our components, we can do anything; fall, hip, modern, trendy, rustic, boho,…you get the picture!

But I’ve decided, since it IS called the

“Very Vintage Challenge”,

that I’d make something completely out of my style element and do something “Very Vintage” as the Challenge title suggests.

"Vintaj" Brass, Co. - Lovely Goodies!

So, I’ve been playing around with a few of these,….trying to put them with some of the things that came in my

Very Vintage Fall Challenge kit

and I think I need more inspiration.

I need some real “vintage” items to actually hold, touch, smell (yes, there’s a vintage smell to jewelry – trust me!)

I’m going to be putting on some Beggie Adair music this week, sitting down and looking over Grandma Mate’s jewelry,

(yep, they gave that to the right little girl, don’t ya know!)

and seeing what these bits of inspiration can manage to

“Muse-Up” from me.

The “Big Reveal Date” is October 4^th – Right Here

and of course,…right here!

So stay tuned and I’ll let you know how it goes.

Wish me luck!!

Until Next Time,

Peace, Love, and Twirling with Vintage Anticipation!

Cheers,

~Shel~

Leaves and Pearls - Autumn 2009 Design from MiShel Designs

Okay - so I've been thinking of all this "Fall" stuff lately.

Fall colors, fall designs,...all of it!

Maybe it's because all the stores are spiced with autumn goodies like vivaciouly colored leaves in burnt orange, rust and gold. And maybe it's because the smells are so lovely right now - I mean spiced-cider candles are burning all day in my house!!
