Elizabeth, who has some wonderful jewelry in her Etsy shop, Keys and Memories, has "Freebie Wednesdays" on her blog. All you have to do is leave a comment, then she draws a name to pick the winner. Well, a couple of weeks ago, she picked my name!
Whoo hoo! I couldn't believe I won!
It's one of her typewriter key necklaces! Isn't it cool. I'm not sure how she makes them, but they're really nifty.
Keys and Memories has tons of earrings, keychains, necklaces and rings made from lovely vintage typewriter keys. But she also has some variations on the keys. For example, isn't this Dr Suess bracelet funky:
But some of my favorite things in her shop are her steampunk jewelry made out of watch parts and vintage items. (I'm just a sucker for steam punk. I wrote about some fabulous steampunk computers and journals in an earlier post.) This brooch in her shop is just amazing:

BTW, the typewriter key necklace I got seems to be on permanent loan to my 17 yr-old daughter. She "borrowed" it the day it came, so I will probably never see it again.
Children...

I love that cat in the hat bracelet.
Very cute items. Thanks for sharing.
I guess I'll just have to BUY something from her. I love her shop.
anyway, what a great feature. one of my favorite etsy sellers!
But isn't that always the way it is when you get something you ordered from an Etsy seller. I just can't wait until it comes and I get to open it!
Almost like Christmas!

I love that watch-part concoction! I've never heard of "steam punk" before, but I think I love it :o)
