PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING: D E S C R I P T I O N :: This listing is for one shell casing necklace. Each necklace is made with a flattened brass shell casing that is hand stamped (letter by letter) with a saying of your choice. It is complete with oxidized brass cable chain and lobster clasp. S T Y L E :: This design is one of our personal favorites! It has the simplicity of a bar necklace, but using the shell casing as the bar gives it more of an edge. They have a great earthy // boho vibe and with the option to choose your chain length, they are perfect for layering! S I Z E :: Because each pendant is hand cut and flattened from a shell casing, measurements may vary slightly. However, the shell casing bar will measure approx. 3.5 cm long and 1.5cm wide. The necklace will come in the length you choose. Want a different length? No problem! Shoot us a message to discuss options. H A N D C R A F T E D // C U S T O M :: Each necklace is handcrafted to order and can say whatever you would like (as long as it fits)! We have included some sayings in the dropdown menu. If you would like your necklace to say something different, just choose "custom" from the SAYING dropdown menu and leave a "note to seller" with what you would like it to say. Please check your spelling! MAX CHARACTER COUNT:: -One Line - 10 Characters -Two Lines :: Top Line - 6 Characters.......Bottom Line - 10 Characters F O N T // D E S I G N :: We recommend the font shown in the sample photos (newsprint), however, the last photo shows our other font options. The "l" or "U" indicate whether that font comes in ONLY lowercase or ONLY uppercase. Newsprint is the only font that comes in both lower and upper in the same size. If you choose "Bridgette" please let us know if you want the smaller lowercase or larger capital version of the font. If no order note regarding font is left, you will receive newsprint font. In your order note, type the request as you would like it stamped. We will capitalize letters that are capitalized in your request (if you are keeping with newsprint font.) If you choose a font other than newsprint, you will receive all lowercase or all uppercase, depending on the font you chose. These are stamped by hand, letter by letter. Any slight variation in the stamping adds to the uniqueness of your one of a kind piece! S H I P P I N G :: Please be sure to look at the production time listed in the shipping section. Choosing the priority/express shipping option will shorten the shipping time by 1-3 business days, NOT the production time.

Spoon bookmark for that avid reader in your life. Customize your order with your own favorite book verse or phrase. Charlotte's Web was the first chapter book our daughter read. As she stumbled through the words of each chapter her confidence and imagination grew. Books are such an important part of our life and what better way to encourage and recognize someones passion for reading than by gifting them a unique hand crafted bookmark. Throw away the library receipt or the half torn piece of paper you are using and use a spoon! *as the spoons are made to order exact stamping placement may vary from the picture. Spoons are used based on what we have in stock.

I am very happy to report that I am now the exclusive sales agent representing JunkGirls Jenny Kompolt or Jenny K as most people call her is the hunting and gathering half of the JunkGirls as well as the artist and designer. Melissa, her partner is the "queen of everything" half that make things hum in the background. Jenny has made quite a name for herself doing antique shows throughout the West Coast, and has many admirers who love her work. She makes art, wall installations, lighting, and furniture using found and recycled objects. Since everything she does is with recycled objects each piece is a one of a kind treasure. Many items can be reordered but each one will be a little different. In that category we have "WISDOM GALS" hand crafted using wood "mashers"and various found objects. Each is unique and holds a quote or message inside a cookie cutter. "HANDS" Vintage restaurant silver and procelain hands, each holds a special object or sentiment. Suitable for hanging or display using an easel. "TO RIDE THE SKY" A very popular piece, the statue was created using a found toy horse, a horseshoe, a spur and a glass top typewriter key. The quote reads "To ride a horse is to ride the sky" "TOOTS" These are created using vintage brass instruments mouth pieces, band music lyres and other vintage hardware. Great way to hold a photo, favorite quote, special note or place cards. "BLING" These are hand-crafted using vintage silver and silver plate teaspoons varying in size. The smallest are perfect for dog tags Medium size could be worn as a necklace or hung around a wine bottle Christmas ornament or tie on for gift wrap The large size is made from a tablespoon or serving spoon and make a nice key ring These are also available with the word or words of your chose. The name of your store or a special event, the ideas are limitless. The handles of the spoons and other cutlery are also used. Great for plants another suggestion for these is to use for cheese boards and put the different types of cheese. Lighting is another category Vintage safety cage pendant lamps, you can have the cage open or closed or add a metal plate/hat to add additional interest Fence wire pendant lamps are created using spools of fencing wire and vintage hardware. Since these are made "as found" materials, each lamp is slightly different in size, shape and color Here are some other examples of her work Foundry mold table top on a heavy metal machine base, right out of the industrial revolution. Jenny loves to make tables and has a great eye for the different and unique. Vintage letterpress type table, using hundreds of pieces of wood letterpress type from the 30's-60's. Much of the type was used to print carnival posters and billboards and was hand-carved by craftsmen of the day. The type has been waxed to bring out the beautiful colors from the various inks. This is a valve knob table using valves, sprinkler and faucet knobs welded together on a cast iron or steel base. Also good for small end tables. This is just a small sampling of what is available. Please contact me for more information on any of the items shown, new items or custom works with prices and pictures. Creativity takes courage. Matisse
