Grandma Gladys's Jewelry

 

This blog is all about finding hope in the lost...

It is about taking things that were considered outdated, unusable, hopeless, or trash

and seeing a new purpose in them.

This blog is a reflection of Christ's love and passion for salvaging his creation, 

 These items of jewelry belonged to my late Grandma Gladys McCartney of Florida. 

She was my Mom's mother.

My Mom passed this jewelry onto my older sister after she got married over 10 years ago. 

My sister was kind enough to let me dig through it and pick out things I wanted.

I picked a big pile, but she asked me if I could make something for her, my mom, and me to all wear as a memory of my Grandma...

 

SO, I took them home and stared at the pile for a while. 

I looked at the possible color and shape combinations...

I put different peices together eliminating some clashing combinations and 

in the process found ones that worked. 

These are the three pieces I came up with for my Mom, My Sister, and Me.

more to come...
