Vintage Swedish Pine Cone Ornament
Gabrielle BARBIER from frenchjewelryvintage says
I love the mysterious steampunk, romantic gothic, Victorian, retro and vintage universes as I incorporate vintage supplies into my creations whenever I can. I love fairies, unicorns, the Renaissance, cities and everything that inspires me.
I have a tricolor Collie dog who sleeps with us in my arms and I hope to have a baby kitten again next year. I love nature, lace and everything that makes you dream. I registered in Christmas in July several years ago but I was afraid to start, that’s done and thank you for accepting me.
I present you a jewel that I love and that asked a lot of time of me to realize.
Native American Necklace
Diane Davis from DianeDCrochet says
My Etsy shop is DianeDCrochet. You can find crocheted items like Afghans, hats, scarves, bags and shawls.
As we are heading into the winter months (at least in my neck of the woods), scarves and hats will be needed to help keep us warm. Shawls are great to wear in cool evenings.
My crocheted bags are good for the Farmer’s Market, the beach, the pool, or storage. If you are taking a winter vacation to someplace warm, the bags are packable and don’t take up a lot of space in your luggage.
I also do crafts fairs in November and early December.

AnRusa Paris from FairyMagicChest says
I’m Anrusa, a digital artist, photographer and designer based in France. My store is FairyMagicChest and is inspired by fairy tales, adventures and also in old and charming times. I love my work because I think it makes people happy , mostly children, and this is so beautiful!
In the store, you can find digital backgrounds and overlays to create art from your own photographs, especially for children. These final creations can become magical prints, you can get from them fine wall art, greeting cards or just photographs to save as a treasures for a lifetime.
I am also introducing photographs that I take from charming places in Paris and other places from France.
I love all my items, but I chose this one because is about Christmas, like the team’s name!

Luxury Decorative Soap
Piera from PatinePolvere says
I am a lover of the jewels of the theater, it is with my art that I create sacred ornaments, such as votive hearts, relics, crosses.
I like to immerse myself in the distant past, imagining the jewels of those times that we read in history books. My true love is the painting and restoration of old furniture, but not having much space at home, I found another way to occupy my hands with tools, which is silverware in jewelry.
I create the past of jewels from nothing, with elements that I find in flea markets.
And, living in Italy, there is a world yet to be discovered of old things with stories to tell.
I have such a great passion for markets and stuff from the past, that my house has become a museum, so, along with my pets and my husband, we are looking for a bigger house, maybe near the sea, which is another element that makes me feel good.
I like to represent, in each creation, an emblem of myself: there’s so much of me in the past.
I am very grateful for your accepting me into your team. Here is one of my most recent articles.
Sacred Heart necklace with Byzantine cross
Bianca from blancANIMALS says
I’m Bianca and I live in the countryside, the beautiful “Westerwald” in Germany. I studied architecture and design and absolutely love design “with humor”. So I try to create playful and humorous products which are able to raise a smile.
In the beginning, I started making gifts for my family and friends. In 2009, I decided to try to share my work with more people and thus the brand “blanc” was born. Since then, I sell, under this name, cute bookmarks, magnets, key chains and other things for a beautiful home.
Thank you so much for accepting me into your team!
Here’s one of my bookmarks.
