Wondering what to do with that tin of buttons you've been saving from your mother or grandmother? Work with Cara Rosaen, the designer behind Sweet Plum Vintage, to help create an entire heirloom jewelry collection.

 

 

Jacki's Family

A necklace with sweet remembrance of Harriet Evans for the best-dressed neighbor I know - Jacki.

<   II   >

Meet with Cara to brainstorm ideas for your own collection. Discuss your style, the style of loved ones you may be purchasing pieces for, and learn about the materials and age of the buttons you have. Browse through a portfolio of ideas for inspiration, and help to choose from a variety of vintage and antique beads and other ephemera for your pieces.

You will receive photos of your collection halfway through the process and be able to provide feedback to the jewelry designer, so that you and your family members are delighted with the final collection. Heirloom Button Jewelry Collections can take between 2 and 6 weeks to complete depending on their size and the time of year.
