Snowy Enamel Christmas Tree Brooch

Always a favorite around this time of year... the Christmas tree brooch. This enameled beauty is unsigned.

Vintage Florenza Three Strand Cameo Choker

Since I moved the house around- I no longer have access to the same photography area I set up. I generally like to use a lot of natural light for photographing my inventory too. Unfortunately there is not an abundance of natural light during Winters in Wisconsin. As you can see from these pictures I am getting used to my new photography area I have set up. Some of the pictures are coming out too dark and and when I use the flash- it washes them out. I will get it down though. It takes practice to take good close ups of jewelry. Anytime you change a camera or start shooting in a new area with a different lighting, you should expect some time to adjust.

Regardless- this necklace is a signed Florenza gold tone, three strand choker style necklace and it's much better looking in person!

Up All Night... Vintage Owl Necklace with Moonglow Eyes

This weekend I moved bedrooms. The master bedroom which is really pretty is on the bottom floor. We had two of our school age sons sharing that room since we moved here several years ago. My husband and I were on the top floor so we could be with our youngest children and be on the same floor as the nursery. It seemed much safer to not have to walk up and down the stairs in the middle of the night with screaming babies. Needless to the say the top floor of our house is not as pretty- in fact it is butt ugly.

My husband and I have been staying in a room for three years that is green and has purple butterflies on the wall. The previous occupants were two little girls if I recall correctly. If you are wondering why we just didn't paint the walls up there... we only had 3 children when we moved into our new house 3 & 1/2 years ago. Now we have five! Painting during pregnancy and when there are babies in the house is not my to my liking. Now though- our youngest is 1 and I finally feel like a human and less of a cow, so it's time for home improvements.

If you are wondering what this has to do with jewelry it doesn't... it just an explanation as to why the postings are sparse lately. I thought I would pop on here on Sunday and make a quick post, but it took longer then expected to have my two sons situated upstairs with no problems going back to school on Monday. I was up pretty late this weekend- and not online much. I feel like a night owl- kind of like this beautiful vintage owl necklace. Only his eyes are a beautiful moon glow yellow... mine are bulgy and red!

HOOT HOOT!
