Gardner & Assoc.: Jewels for the Pauper

Handmade and Repurposed Items fit for a Queen but priced for a Pauper The idea for this page came from my husband. I made quite a few items and wore them.

Summer 2014 found me convelecing from surgery and playing around with a Ziploc bag of broken jewelry I had found at a thrift shop. Strangers would ask where I purchased my jewelry, which floored me. I am not a jeweler. My true love is history and genealogy. Each piece of broken jewelry has a history. The previous owner loved it and for unknown reasons, it is found in a thrift shop
