Tidings of Comfort and Joy...

God rest ye merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay, 

 
 







Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas day,
 

 

 To save us all from Satan's pow'r

When we were gone astray;

O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
 

From God our heavenly Father
A blessed angel came.
 

And unto certain shepherds
Brought tidings of the same,

 

 How that in Bethlehem was born

The Son of God by name:

 O tidings of comfort and joy,

Comfort and joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.

Happy Holidays from,

Age Before Beauty.

Deck your lobes...

Deck your lobes with lovely earwear. 

Fa la la la la, la la la laaaaaa,

I'm making some pretty blingy bits for your ears. All are sterling wire wrapped and boast sterling findings. 

Old religious medals, antique beads,

 fabulous Victorian buttons, creamy mother of pearl, 

 Edwardian purse clips, 

and lots of fun and festivity to boot.

I'll be at the Craft and Fancy Show this Saturday. 

And for all of you who also would like sparkling ear bling for the holidays, please check my etsy shop, Age Before Beauty.

Deck your lobes, and your neck,... who cares about the halls?

Strange Angel

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooo there's a chill in the air--- calling all ghosts and ghouls to ready for All Hallow's Eve...

Meet "Strange Angel" a creation by artist Elli Groninger. A gift to me from my parents for my birthday. Elli brings to life fantastic creatures using old cars, lockers, anything wrecked and metal.














This creepy gal makes me smile with her winsome pose.

Her curly silhouette is wonderful next to the contorted filbert (I just love that name).  Happy Halloween everyone! Enjoy!
