More upcycled vintage key jewelry!

Carrying on with my collection of vintage keys which are sourced from a nearby antiques shop come these three pieces.


BOHO bracelet as seen as above and below, brown suede in light and dark wrapped around a silver plated washer.
A vintage key, pearl type beads and a heart are used as charms. 


Finally getting to use my metal stamps!" You are the key to my heart" with a small vintage key.

This is the same as above but comes with a larger vintage key with a heart shape on the key and the number 2.

All these items and more can be found in store!
