Spotlight On: Designs by Victoria

Steampunk is alive and well at DbVictoria, a wonderfully creative shop on Etsy.




Full of fantasy and frills, Victoria creates whole worlds of wonder with her jewlery collections. She features not only Steampunk, but Neo-Victorian, hats, purses,and costume items.





My favorite pieces from DbVictoria are the gorgeous parasols embellished with lace and hand-beading. They are a stunning step back in time.

Spotlight On: SendingLoveGallery

If you need to send something very special, SendingLoveGallery has it. Upon stepping into this shop on Etsy, I was captivated by all the gemstones. And, of course, I'm a sucker for glass beads. These Coral Peach Vintage Glass earrings and matching necklace would fit perfect into my personal collection.




There is a stunning variety of color and yummy gemstones to choose from. I love, love, LOVE SendingLoveGallery!

Spotlight On: AdroitJewelers

Beauty and brains. That's what I think of when I visit AdroitJewelers on Etsy. This shop is full of stunning silver and glass beaded jewelry. The wire-wrapped pieces in sterling silver with seaglass are fantastic! But the brains behind this beauty's shop are these non-pierced earrings!



What a fabulous idea for those who don't have pierced ears! They fit right over the curve of your ear and hang just like a sexy pair of hoops. Now that's thinking outside the box!

And these swirly dangles of silver goodness named the Black Dot earrings are my favs! I actually own a pair of these that I received in a lucky jewelry swap and I wear them all the time. They go with absolutely everything.
Please visit AdroitJewelers and find your favorites!

Barbara's style is diverse, having something in her shop for women of many styles. Elegant pearls, sterling silver, gem stones...all stunning.
