Vintage Silver Spoon Bracelets by Cupids Charm

Monday Beginnings

I’ll let you in on a little secret….I LOVE Mondays! I love starting a week fresh and new and with my studio production calendar all organized with upcoming work for the week. Starting fresh and organized just makes the rest of the week flow smoothly.

I also love to start the week with a fresh flower arrangement for the studio. Grocery store roses are a favorite and these were soooo pretty at the market this weekend that I knew they were coming home with me.

I only wish I knew the variety…really large blooms…white with tinges of green on the outside petals and deep pink centers….Mother Nature in all her romantic beauty.

On my schedule for this week? I’ll be listing a whole new batch of vintage spoon bracelets, so stay tuned for those.

Also, I sorted through my stacks of vintage and antique china this weekend. I’ve been so busy creating upcycled jewelry pieces that I’ve all but ignored my broken china pieces. I was prompted to get crackin’…no pun intended : )… because I’ve been receiving email inquiries about making different styles of broken china bracelets. I love the romantic hearts I use on my bracelets now, but I’ve set aside a few days this week to play, experiment and create a few new styles for the shop.




I hope your week is filled with sweet blessings and beauty too! xoxo ~ Joy

Facebook Friends...

Back in the day a “Facebook” referred to the yearly high school album….

…digging around a bargain basement Flea Market I came across this tattered high school yearbook of the Class of 1926 from Kansas City Kansas High School...

…what a step back in time it is to flip through this album! Of course, it got me thinking and reminiscing about my own high school friends and connections from those years filled with so much change and growth...

….looking through this album I could not help but notice how old the boys and girls looked for their age compared to nowadays. The high school heartthrob looks positively middle-aged!

….I wonder how many of these students maintained their friendships? In today’s busy world, it’s so hard to connect the old fashioned way through letters, notes, visits and phone calls. I am finding myself connecting more and more with friends electronically. The more I use it, the more I love it….

…I’ve decided to jump in with both feet over on Facebook. I am totally in awe that my Personal Page has reached over 3,300 Friend requests this past year!!!

But the time has come to switch to a business “Like” Page and I have to start all over again from scratch....bummer! Personal Page Friends do not automatically transfer to the new business Like page so if you are on my old page, please come "Like" the new page. Starting immediately I will no longer be posting on my old personal page.

I’ll be using the “Like” Page now and I plan to update more, offer fun promotions, discounts and more behind the scenes status reports. Please come Join Me on my new Facebook Page!!! Here is a direct link and I hope to meet up with you over there! ~ Merci ~ xoxo ~ Joy

She has the most unbelievable collection…both in quality and quantity, of rhinestone pieces I’ve ever seen. Her contacts are world-wide and I am over the moon about being able to work with her to start bringing some of these fabulous pieces into Cupids Charm line….stay tuned!! ~ xoxo ~ Joy

A Few New Charm Bracelets!

Work is progressing here in the studio and I wanted to share a few new designs that have just been added to the website! I am truly loving these new bracelets in my Blessings Collection….

These bracelets are so comfortable to wear and with the mix of silver and bronze metals, they just seem to go with everything in my closet! I also really love the spiritual sentiments behind these designs and as I glance down at mine throughout the day, I remind myself of the precious blessings in my life.

I also added a few more pieces in the bracelet category….and more are coming. This is a busy weekend in the studio for me and I’ll be loading more goodies throughout different categories on the website over the next few days. It’s taken a bit of time to create these pieces and then it takes almost as much time to photograph, edit and list the jewelry too, so please come back to visit soon as more pretties are being added.

While I work, I am enjoying these beautiful white spray roses that I picked up last night from our local Fresh Market....

I just love roses from the grocery store and at $6.99 for the whole bunch, it’s a great deal. I’ll enjoy these for days to come! Hope your weekend is filled with beauty and special blessings for you to enjoy too. ~ xoxo ~ Joy
