After a week in Portugal....

Hello...

it's a been a while since i wrote...i've been at home, in Lisbon, and it was a little to busy for me...and then, my internet service didn't worked for a week... so it was a little bit difficult for me to keep in touch...
Back home, I was most of the time with my new nephew, Gui, who is just 2 months old!!!!
He's so, so cute....But he was already a lot bigger and he seemed to me like another baby.... well, that's one of those things of being away from home...you miss some important moments...
I also managed to buy some working material there and i already put aside some christmas gifts for my mother and sister (they saw my pieces and wanted a pair of earrings each!!!)...i'll put the photos of those here today...

I'm really not sure if anyone in the world reads my blog, but it's a good therapy for me and it keeps my english up to date...
I'm also a little bit dissapointed with the on-line sales on etsy....i put a lot of hard work into it and no one seems to buy anything... Wonder how all those big sellers at etsy manage to do it...i'll keep trying any how...
Any way i've made my first sale on ebay and made up a new page in facebook.

i had some new ideas and i'm thinking of also making clutch bags...let's see what turns out...

today i got good news: i've been chosen to expose in a very exclusive sale in the 4-star hotel here in Milan...It's on february 19th and i'm very, very happy because it's a great opportunity... Be sure to see all the photos of the event in the future ...
see you tomorrow...if internet lets me do it...

Today i'm posting some of my still available pieces - on sale on ebay (user vanettexiclete) and on my ebay (user vanettexiclete)...


One-of-a-kind piece with 6 re-customized adorable hand-painted china buttons. Each button as a beautiful flower hand-painted on it. The composition is finished with little swarosky crystals.It's just so original and so romantic!!!!



The theme of these piece are the flowers. Flowers in diferent forms...made out of metal, hand-painted in a vintage china button....This is a really cute pair of earrings and you can use either in a day-to-day casual situacion or a formal one, like an office cristhmas party....



Necklace composition using a 1920's translucid button with beautiful engravings on the inside and black and gold yellow crystal beads.It looks as it has travel through time from the golden 20's to nowdays!!

And now something new....my first clutch bag.....hope you like it...


Yellow vinyl clutch bag brought into a vintage look, using vintage materials.The bag has a superior line made of black glass vintage buttons, adorned with little metal leafs.In the center i used 3 very particular black vintage buttons: 2 glass and one bakelite.The composition gives this bag a post-modern look, mixing old-days vintage materials with contemporary pieces.It's the soul of the party!
