Featured Shop: rebstuff1 (Kettle of fish)

Owned by Rebecca Allen

I now own this amazing 1950's broach thanks to Rebstuff1
Vintage/ estate 1950s purple paste/ rhinestone flower brooch
OK so I don't own it, I bought it for my Mother for Christmas. Rebecca's shop was like a little magic find for me. After hours of searching for quality vintage stores, which also sold beautiful Jewelry, maintained to a high degree, I found this amazing shop. Her prices are also much better than others I have seen for similar items.
When the broach arrived I was so pleased to see that it had been professionally cleaned and didn't have any hidden damage. Plus its from the 50's, a period in time I am obsessed with. I know I will have to be buying more from her. Rebecca finds all the best that vintage jewelry has to offer. I usually only put one other item up but I just love these:

Featured Shop: brocobelle

Featured Shop: brocobelle

Owned by Karen Vallerius

From Brocobelle I bought a beautiful fed flower broach.
Handstitched Red Flower Brooch Handmade Upcycled Vintage Tartan Plaid Silk Scarf Suffolk Puff in Felt & Vintage Button Centre
Karen makes many similar pieces but I know that I am the only person who owned this one. Something unique to me which is one of the true highlights of buying handmade. I also love that this piece is made from upcycled vintage material. So already we have upcycled, vintage, and unique. On top of all this the work and detail put into the broach is amazing. I put it on my bag that I use every day because the material is so soft and I like the feel of it when my fingers go numb in winter. 

The owner is a great lady, easy to talk to and even gave me some great hints and tips. One of those people who makes a difference in your life even if you just talk to them briefly.

In future I would like to buy this:
Romantic Handmade Necklace Vintage Textiles Lace Millinery Flowers & Jewellery Upcycled with Diamante Framed Miniature
I already know the quality will be great. It looks so delicate and intricately designed.

Please go check out the shop for some amazingly unique designs

Doctor Who themed goodies once again and this time with a unique and original twist from an amazing artist
Doctor Who Christmas hand made greetings cards  - 'Snow Dalek'   Pack of 6
I could not resist these. They made me smile and are such great quality, much better than anything at any store on the high street. I got all mine with this image on but the lovely owner will mix and match any that you want. Hows that for above and beyond customer service. That is exactly what Carolyn offers. She really stood out to me as being a seller that wanted to make her customers happy and has a passion for what she does.
The next thing I want from SpiritedPortraites is this amazing Bettie Page Print. So much better than so much of the usual poses ad styles you see her done in.
