Caramel Cameo Choker...

I have been busy in the studio with needle and thread and beads and lace. I call this Caramel Cameo Choker. The color is between caramel and butterscotch. Vintage lace is handstitched to grossgrain ribbon. Some gold toned beads are added to embellish the lace flowers and encircle the cameo.
Ties in the back with gold toned satin ribbon so it fits all sizes.
The look is very vintage and very feminine. I can see this worn with so many different looks from jeans to velvet. It would look especially appropriate with a Victorian costume don't you think?
I am thinking I should make some cuffs as they are so popular right now. I could make a Caramel Cameo Cuff. What do you think?
There is so much joy in making something with my own hands and stitching loving thoughts into each and every piece.
Happy creating...

  1. Good Morning Sweetie...
    How absolutely breathtaking this new creation is. You do the most beautiful work I have ever seen. I love the beading that you chose to surround the cameo, and the lace on the choker is the perfect shade to accent the cameo. I also love the gold bead addition around the lace. So elegant.

    Yes I agree, this could be worn with evening attire or a cute jean outfit.

    Thank you for sharing sweetie.
