Putting on the RITZ with vintage rhinestone jewelry can be a glamorous way to add unexpected twists to your holiday decorating and table settings... The Picture of the silver candelabra is from BHG..and features a couple rhinestone necklaces attached with a thin piece of wire... Oh the sparkle, glitz, and glam... Extra sparkle when accompanied by little Christmas white twinkle lights... Decorating in this style becomes a reflection on you and your personality... it shows you don't want to be like others... I particularly love doing something that some other person may not choose to do but it is also very rewarding when someone chooses to like your style... Using pieces of your own collection or pieces you find at a secondhand store are more budget friendly... If you use 4.00 or 5.00 pieces or even more you will have quite a ton of money involved and then it must become a very special piece... I love the way new life has been given to this precious sweet little ivory mica coated tree of which now is my first completed and displayed touch of my Christmas decorating.... { Tip... I did take and tie thin yarn around tree where brooches and bit and bobs were glued on and let set overnight... This worked wonderfully for securing the heavy pieces... } I love this look so much I believe I will search for enough rhinestone jewelry for another tree I have and place it with my lovely mirror and perfume bottles.....
I think it is charming to think of uncommon objects you could use for tree ornament hanging... There is not one thing more satisfying as a clever display of treasured belongings or the joy you receive from sharing with others....
Ps... Other ideas for decorating with vintage jewelry....
1. Hang it from a window... Many necklaces can be very pretty sun catchers...
2. Add a vintage brooch with a broken back by gluing instead of a bow....
3. Use a lovely brooch on a lampshade for a touch of glam....
4.Drape necklace across corner of a mirror for amazing sparkle...
5. Add a rhinestone bracelet around a vase or a hurricane globe... This can be stunning.....
