Seadbeady's Finds on Etsy - Vintage

Hi There...... Great to see you again.....Are you ready for some more vintage?

No clothing today but vintage items this time. It's actually this first on the list of my finds that inspired me to make another blogpost about vintage. The seller is someone who often shares my posts and in return I share hers. And that way we both get more exposure.

The term vintage is used for items that are minimum 30 years old and maximum 100 years. Once an item is over 100 years old it is considered to be antique.

I actually have never bought anything antique or vintage. But I do enjoy looking at all those things that sometimes remind me of my youth. You can find really neat things on Etsy. Here are some of the beauties I found for you.

Crystal Stemware Glasses Champagne Wine Queens Lace set of 7 



Ultra rare original vintage Soviet watch Zim "Aviator" 1980 release



Antique SMALL brass Watering Can for Decor with little plant table

Hope you enjoyed my blogpost.........Until next time.........Have a great day

Hi There.....Are you ready for some more finds?

Actually Etsy is not only for handmade but there are also a lot of vintage sellers on Etsy too. Are you a fan of Vintage?

Vintage are often designer or handmade clothes that are typical for a certain era. The term Vintage goes for clothing from 1920 up to the eighties. Older clothing is considered antique and will be popular with collectors but seldom worn.

Introducing to you - Seadbeady

Hi There..... Lately I have been introducing you to some lovely Etsy shops..... But then I was thinking that I actually haven't introduced my own Seadbeady shop to you 😲

I have told you earlier how I got to be a seedbeadaholic. It all started when I started getting a lot of physical health problems. Bad back for the most part, but also problems in lots of my joints with bad cartilage.

Up until 2008 music was a big part of my life. I was a singer in a choir for 4 years and lead singer in a band for 2 years. I was taking piano lessons and singing lessons in the meantime. But my problems forced me to find another pass time.

So that made me to the passionate beader I am today. Hardly any day goes by without me giving in to my seed bead addiction. It's not so much the bigger beads but the tiny seed beads I mostly work with.

In the beginning I worked with patterns off course. But as I developed more skills my mind started to go crazy. It woke me up in the middle of the night with new patterns that just appeared in my head. And the weird thing is I still remembered them next morning. I never put anything on paper but I just started working and 9 times out of 10 it came out the way I imagined it to be.

That's how it was in the beginning and still is at the moment except for the fact that I don't wake up from the many patterns in my brain anymore. I still regularly use patterns from others, because they inspire me to make my own.

So let me show you some of my very own creations

Statement Women Gift, Statement Women Necklace



Ethnic Bracelet, Delicate Beadwork Statement Bracelet



Statement Beadwork Jewelry, Romantic Beadwork Embroidered Jewelry



Blue Green Womans Necklace, Geometric Beaded Jewelry



Red Beadwork Jewelry Flower Bracelet for Her, Elegant Wife Gift

Tassel Jewelry Bead Rope Womans Necklace, Purple Jewelry for Her



Statement Bead Rope Womans Chic Jewelry, Best Rope Necklaces



Statement Unique Womans Jewelry Beaded Bracelet for Wife

So what do you think of my jewelry? Would really love to know 😃
I sometimes wonder what you would like to see more of .....Is there something I should focus more on? Or make more of? 

I hope you enjoyed my blogpost for today.........Until next time......... Have a great day

Introducing to you - DonnaDesigned

Hi there.....Are you ready to be introduced to another lovely Etsy shop?

Ok then let me tell you a bit about DonnaDesigned today 😊

She began to sew after finishing 6th grade. First her own clothes, next came her wedding dress and I suppose you can guess what followed. Off course the kids clothes.

Through the years she added other crafting skills such as counted cross stitch, jewelry making and crocheting. But she always got drawn back to sewing. Friends and Family inspired her to explore selling possibilities. So when her niece asked her to join in her craft booth, she agreed and started building up an inventory of purses and doll clothes. Her Etsy shop contains a large inventory of doll clothes for 18 inch dolls both girl and boy.

So today I wanted to show you some of her sweet creations 😃

Super cute, aren't they? I wish I could have had those as a kid. And she has lots more of those cuties in her Etsy shop.....so don't let me stop you from browsing it 😀

Hope you enjoyed my blogpost for today.........Until next time.........Have a great day
