New vintage button necklace I added to the shop this week. I love this color! Reminds me of Fire King Jadite dishes that were so poplular in the 1940's.

Antique Button Necklace- Depression Glass and Victorian Button- Root Beer, Handmade by Timeless Trinkets
A double layer of vintage goodness. The bottom button is antique glass
and has a faceted edge, in the center I have added an antique button.
The button measures 3/4" and dangles 1" from an 18" stainless steel chain with a 2" extender at the back.
These are gorgeous parts of history. The secrets they know and stories to tell. I feel a wonderful connection with the past when I hold one of these beauties.
Item will come in an attractive gift box ready for gift giving.

New Design-Sea Holly, Antique Steel Cut Button(c.1800's) Earrings
I was delighted to be able to make a few new designs this week. The steel cut buttons I have had for over a year now and just didn't want to part with them. They have a concave back and didn't fit into any of my settings but still I hung on to them. Just this week I was sitting at my desk staring at the huge mess that needs to be cleaned and organized when I saw this setting and thought of how it might work with these buttons. Sometimes clutter helps the creative rut:)
I'm of mostly Welsh heritage and the gryphon buttons are just super cool. Need I say more?

Stella, Antique 1800's Glass Button Necklace
This is a new design I worked on this week. I tried several different charms and beads below the button and decided I like the cameo best.

Book of Days, Steampunk Locket
This week I worked on making several steampunk lockets. This one has the days of the week dial you find in many old wristwatches. I still cant figure out why the days are written twice. To view more please visit my shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/timelesstrinkets .

Nightingale, Repurposed Necklace with Freshwater Pearls
This necklace is the combination of several different pieces of jewelry. The focal is a new metal cameo made with vintage molds. Above is a piece that I rescued from a broken bracelet, the rhinestone leaves came from a broken necklace, and the hand wrapped pearls are new.The necklace measures 17" long with a back extender allowing the necklace to be adjusted up to 19". The pendant dangles 2.5" from necklace and the cameo measures a little over 1" by 3/4".I often think about the history of my creations and only if they could talk the stories you could hear.

Antique Buttons
Some new styles I posted today. I just love antique buttons:) 
The necklace above features a pendant that can be detached from the chain and worn as a brooch.
These earrings are mother of pearl twinkle buttons from the late 1800's with freshwater pearls.
The button above is a carved mother of pearl button from the late 1800's. Below are freshwater pearls. My favorite!
