I decided to go antiquing this morning...in search of jewelry treasures to use in my designs.  I went to Carlisle, PA.  (Normal people say car-lyle.  Locals say caw-LYLE.  I don't know why.)


Didn't have much luck.  The two pieces above are all I found.  But they're good pieces!

I did, however, find this:


It's Little Red Riding Hood....under glass!!  It's very Victorian and very sweet.  I'm afraid I couldn't resist it.  It's now living in my bathroom on my shelf full of antique glass bottles.


Next time I'm looking for jewelry parts, I'll go to Gettysburg.  (Normal people say getties-burg.  Locals say gettis burg.  Don't ask me why!)
