Ever since my "Wedding Tales" post over at the Indie Wedding Guide from Heather and Micah's wedding, I'm engulfed in vintage rings. Today's Daily Swank is a few of my latest favorites all from Jennifer Rydin Designs. Be unique and dress your digits up with something chic and sophisticated like these beauties.
Vintage Indie would like to send a warm welcome to our returning sponsor Accessory a la Mode. Today I'm highlighting one of my most absolutely favorite pieces in their line and showing off the versatility that this company can provide all while maintaining their independent business structure.
I say it all of the time here on VI that I'm overwhelmed by the talent that I find in artists of small independent companies. I truly stand by the idea that these types of businesses are what the words " quality and unique" really mean. Accessory a la Mode creates artisan jewelry with hand stamped elements that make them personal.
This is one of my absolute favorites this necklace is part of the Rustique line called Earth's Poetry. It features a sterling silver hand forged oxidized leaf, and a leaf shaped pendant with the phrase "THE EARTH..LIVING POETRY LIKE THE LEAVES OF A TREE" hand stamped. Each bead and element that is matched together with the other is given special treatment such as buffing and oxidation to complete the feel of the piece.
While you stroll through the many wonderful hand stamped accessories you'll also find delicate and beautiful items like these Antiques Brass Vintage Style Filigree Rhinestone earrings. Delightfully hand antiqued to give each one that romantic feel.
Lastly, a simply perfect item for Mother's Day is their Tearz O Joy Personalized Hand Stamped Necklace from their new Spring Line. Each "Tear" can be personalized to fit a name or short description.
Head over to Accessory a la Mode and take them up on their FREE SHIPPING offer for Vintage Indie Readers.
Please make a note of "free shipping offer from Vintage Indie" in your "notes to seller" and wait for further instructions.
Today's Daily Swank from So-Charmed is just that, "charming" I'm in love with the precious designs from this shop. I think each and every one would make a great gift for your little princess this Valentine's Day or even for indulging the princess in you.
This indie company is "baking" up some yummy treats for Valentine's Day. This Valentine Cake is made right on top of a vintage button. Don't you just love those little hearts!
If that Valentine Cake wasn't enough to make you swoon, then how about this delicious little Peaches and Roses cake atop a vintage button. This one is a special badge, attach anywhere to add some charm to your life.
What's a celebration without a dip in some chocolate right?
How about serving up this Dark Chocolate cake sitting atop a vintage pink button with a "pink icing rose"

Trace Elements our Featured Sponsor is back again for a delightful holiday special for you and an insight in to what inspires jewelry designer and shop owner Tracy.
If your plans for holiday shopping including Etsy, you'll be happy to know that Trace Ellements also has a huge selection to choose from in their Etsy shop.
A closer look into what inspires Jewlery designer and shop owner Tracy.
"I'm inspired by all the beautiful colors in the world. I love the variance in shades of greens and blues and the subtle effects that pale shades can bring to a piece. Also I love textures to mingle together adding interesting layers and inspiring a tactile reaction from jewelry lovers. I always opt for the road less traveled and choose less commonly used combinations for a unique look that maintains my "one-of-a-mind" design quality. I want everything from my jewelry to my gift items to be unusual and aesthetically beautiful and often times useful as in book marks or fan pulls...why settle for less, no need for ho-hum anywhere in our lives, right?!
