Wedding Crown of Crystal

Side wide of the Jewelry
Last summer I gave my niece my wedding crown, filled to the brim with Crystal. I saved my crown, because way back then I know my Grandmother paid a lot for it, my mom was trying to get me to pick out something else, but I was set on that crown, and my Grandmother, knew I loved my crystal way back then. My Mom and Grandmother were wonderful! I asked her if she would be able to take the crystals off, and make me a necklace for my 40th Wedding Anniversary. I told her no hurry, she had 2 years, little did I know that the time would be cut short. Last Sunday she came by, with everything that she made, I even have a few extras that I might add to my Memory Sampler. I couldn't believe she got all these pieces from the crown, must have been a lot of beads! I now have a wonderful remembrance of that day! Sarah did a wonderful job. She has designed many pieces. I just love these pieces, and I have a few weddings to go to this coming year, knowing that Joe will be with me when I wear them makes me happy! You did a good job Sarah! I can't thank you enough!
