Unique jewelry for Father's Day
Father's Day is fast approaching. And what a great idea broken china jewelry would make as a gift for your dad! If you have cracked or chipped china that would have sentimental meaning for your father, unique cuff links and tie tacks can be handcrafted out of it. Or you can choose from these ready-made pieces available on my website.

Blue Willow custom order started
I had mentioned before about the custom order I've received to design china from a customer's Blue Willow china platter. This china belonged to her aunt whom she loved and admired greatly. Unfortunately, the platter fell off the top of the refrigerator and broke into far too many pieces to salvage. The customer has requested that I design jewelry from the china for her to give her relatives this Christmas. Since it is a Christmas order, I hadn't done anything with the china when it arrived. But I've now broken it into the desired pieces. I can't believe my luck that I was able to save the two birds and the boat which are such an integral part of the Blue Willow tale. To read the fascinating tale, please check out my prior blog posting.
Here are some of the pieces that I'll be using to make the pendants. In talking it over with my customer, we decided not to use the tree piece. Instead we may be using another one of the oval designs which is located in several places around the border of the platter. All of the pieces shown here are in very rough form and still need to be shaped and smoothed.
These pieces will be transformed in several pairs of earrings.
And these will be used to make men's tie tacks. I'm very excited to be branching out into men's jewelry and will be adding more of this type of jewelry to my site in the very near future.
So stayed tuned to see the final designs from this beautiful Blue Willow china platter.
