Crocheted Steampunk

I wasn't quite sure what to call this style, so I've decided on crocheted steampunk.

This necklace is titled
Do Not Disturb.





It has a ceramic face, some felted beads, an antique key, an antique leather button and 3 beautiful glass vintage buttons. It all comes together with a fine cotton crochet thread.
One of a kind.
Artwear.

Thanks for having a look.

Not Forgotten

Remembering a day long ago.
Playing on the beach while mom sat nearby.
Small bits of lace and buttons from her sundress and yours.
Some torn linen from the tablecloth where you had your picnic together.
Freshwater pearls from the shop on the boardwalk.
Time goes by so quickly.
It seems like only yesterday.









Hand stitched bits of antique linen and lace.
Antique and vintage buttons.
Freshwater pearls.
A vintage watch case altered to hold a little girls picture and a free moving pearl.

Remembering special moments.
They are Not Forgotten.

This one of a kind art wear necklace will be available for sale in my Etsy shop.

Thanks for stopping by.
Please take a minute to say hi while you're here.

Happy 4th of July weekend to you all.
