There is something about miniatures that attract me.

We just listed these on Lopaka Designs ... Hand made earrings using Victorian molded glass leaves and beads. Priced at $24.95 a pair. Check them out! These leaves and beads come from a Victorian hand made tree ... they were wrapped in silver wire on branches to form a tree. The red ones were particularly beautiful. Unfortunately, the trees had seen better days and I decided to rescue the glass pieces. Watch for necklaces in the near future!
