Upcycled Charm Swap:
Vintage Redoux


Shanna, of Vintage Redoux, sent not one,
but two charms for our Upcycled Charm Swap!

The first is made from little brass bullet casings Shanna found in the desert. She strung a little amber saucer bead through a headpin, added a pretty bead cap and wire wrapped the end to make a charm.

I found the second charm tucked inside the small brown paper bag.
What a fun surprise! 


The second charm is upcycled from a vintage pearl necklace. The tiny pearls hang from a distressed brass jump ring and are joined by a little brass finished leaf. Good things do come in small packages!


I love the way Shanna packaged her charms. 
The small brown paper bag is stamped on the front with her shop name and address, logo and tag line. The back is thoughtfully stamped with her Thanks.

The smaller charm is slipped inside the paper bag. The bullet charm is secured to a length of black tulle that's been wrapped and tied around the paper bag. It's a sweet little present.
