Vintage Beads Necklace by Elfi Altendor!

I could never get enough of this green/jade color.

"Paris" Vintage Acrylic beads, Lucite and Italian glass beads, Sterling silver cable chain and ball magnet clasp!

The exquisite necklace and earrings are handcrafted by my beloved costume jewelry designer: Elfi Altendorfer.  Soon she will travel back to her hometown: Austria and couple other Europe countries for her jewelry show.  Therefore, I had to visit her and her "gorgeous pieces" before she is gone for a while. 

No, I can't wait for her coming-back and I am glad I didn't!!

Yes, Meiping: that little bead at sides are glass beads which is so hot of accessory in Europe now.

I should have emphasize more on those tiny green/blue accent beads more...huh? ^^

Hi, there,

I was just in San Francisco this past weekend with my family. We went sightseeing and managed to fit in a visit to San Francisco Zoo. My daughter loved it there!

We did so much walking that my feet are still killing me. It was exhausting, but definitely a worthwhile and fun trip!

Congrats on your necklace, the colors are lovely!

When are you leaving for your trip? I'll send you e-mail with travel tips about London this weekend.

hey, dear Mona: Please do send me some "must-go" places since we will only be there for 2 days. Mainly the trip is dedicated to Italy and we'd stay there for 13 days. ^^

Ah, you know, you should have called me or at least email so I probably can have a family lunch/ or just me w/ kids.. ^^ But I am glad that you enjoyed the trip and kids too AND that's the most important thing when traveling w/ WHOLE family!!

Out trip is 11/13... London ..here we come. ^O^
