I grew up in a family Drug Store, Pharmacy and my parents owned the store from 1950 through 1975. I went to many gift shows with my parents and developed a love for beautiful and unique treasures.
I really loved antique furniture, having received a antique oak ice box from my grandmother and a round oak table with claw feet from my parents to start my new life as a bride in 1967.
I had a taste for antiques, I really love the "one of a kind idea", when you find something you do not see 10 more exactly alike. So I have collected many many things, loving Art, Jewelry, Beads and many fabulous treasures throughout the years.

Start your collection today..you will never regret your decision and only have the most fun in finding something so wonderful that know one else has.

Getting ready to list all of the above by April I should have most of all of my items listed. I have hundreds of boxes of beads and supplies in storage. Check back to see if you find something special to create with. I have collected since the 1970's. I have purchased from out of the way little stores, closing, or downsizing their jewelry businesses. I think I have some pretty interesting items for supplies, all vintage items and antiques in jewelry supplies. Some of the treasures I will be designing into jewelry to sell some of it will be sold as a supply. I can design for weddings, bridesmaids, etc. special occasions. I have lots of gemstones for jewelry and I can find more if you need something unique that only you have dreamt about. Send me a message with your telephone number and I will be happy to create your dream. Thank you. jewelsbydesign [!at] gmail.com
