Lostvestige's $15 resin necklaces are built around vintage stamps and other ephemera. I'm not a philatelist (such a great word), but I love snail mail, and an around-the-neck reminder would be sweet. I spend a lot of time on the internet, and while I'm very grateful for the convenient connection, it's also good to take a break and a breath.
I've made a few of these! Although I didn't make them from resin. I had glass stone tiles and sealant. I particularly enjoyed propaganda stamps from former communist countries. That style of artwork appeals to me and there's something evocative about a country that no longer 'exists.' (well, obviously it still exists, but you know)
ReplyDeleteOooh, cool idea! I might feel a bit weird about actually wearing that, though--wouldn't want to offend anyone.
DeleteThese are lovely :-) Hooray for Kowhai!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed! At first I wasn't sure what you were talking about haha, but then I scrolled up and reread the stamps
DeleteSo cool that you did a post with Sarah's necklaces! I really do like them.
ReplyDeleteYeah, they're great!
DeleteThat mushroom one is absolutely amazing!!! (I collect mushrooms in the warmer months) These remind me of one of my favourite etsy sellers a bit. JumpGlass: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/JumpGlass
ReplyDeletelol upon further inspection it might not be a mushroom I can't tell anymore. Either way I love it!
DeleteThat shop is cool! I think it's a carnival/fairground ride, but it does have a mushroom-y shape.
Deletethese are beautiful!! what a fantastic idea for necklaces. i also like the little reminder to send snail mail that they serve & couldnt help favoriting a bunch on etsy right now : ) thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of letters waiting for answers right now! Eep! I'm glad you enjoyed the necklaces :)
DeleteOh my goodness, I was just scrolling back through your posts and was so surprised to see my necklaces pop up! :D Thank you sooo much for sharing them! You are so sweet and this really brightens my day!
