Today I am sharing my latest listing on Etsy....these type of necklaces (although time consuming) are very easy to make :)
Handmade Statement Fairy One Of A Kind Necklace Momma Sent Me Butterflies
Flowers fairies and butterflies one of a kind handmade costume jewelry necklace from Spanky Luvs Vintage.
I made this statement necklace as a tribute to my mother... She passed away a little over a year ago but is still my biggest inspiration :)
I used a vintage hankie,vintage lace,vintage brooches,pins and baubles ,some handmade fabric flowers,and mixed in newer components. The bib piece is 8" long by 5" tall. I placed it on a recycled 18" gold tone vintage chain.

Momma Sent Me Butterflies
When momma died I cried and cried
I can not count the hours.
One nite
I dreamed of butterflies
Then soon
a fairy arrived
who said there
would be flowers.
She said that no one ever dies
If they touched your heart
so deep inside
that you never
forget the feeling
of
the laughter and the smiles
they gave you.
That
no one can ever take that away
in your heart it will always
stay
and
that
is part of the healing.
I learned to smile again
in Spring
when my flowers started
blooming
and everytime
I saw butterflies
I knew my mom was
looming.
I can feel her
every now and then
her whisper and embrace.
I can not call her on the phone
or touch her lovely face.
But
I know she’s watching over me
and wants me to be free
from all the sadness that I feel
because she is not
still
here on Earth
with me.
And I know
the butterflies
and fairies
and flowers
are what she sent to me
in a dream one nite
so I could learn
how to begin
to
set the sorrow
free.
