New Sponsor: Ex Voto Vintage

"I love your necklace, where did you get it?"   Isn't it great when someone notices your jewelry and is so taken by it they want to know where to find it?  That's how I feel about the jewelry from Ex Voto Vintage - this blog's newest sponsor.  Elizabeth Adams takes pieces discarded, left behind, and forgotten and revamps them, elevating them into one-of-a-kind jewelry statements.When she was born, her father’s mentor gave her a locket and a small card with the handwritten blessing: “May your life be as beautiful as you are.” Today, Elizabeth includes a different, hand-selected, blessing inside each locket of Ex Voto, just as with her first locket.

Also, a portion of the proceeds from Ex Voto jewelry goes to The Cure Starts Now Foundation for Pediatric Brain Cancer Research. Which brings me to another point - I've decided that starting this year, sponsors of this blog will be asked to make a contribution to One Simple Wish - an organization that grants the wishes of foster children.  I feel it's a win -win for me to know that my efforts on this blog mean contributions to an organization that is committed to directly helping children.  Thank you Ex Voto!

Here are just a few of the unique and stunning pieces from Ex Voto Vintage.  I love how the necklaces can be layered to compliment each other too.


I have a feeling when my daughter sees this bracelet it's going to appear on a birthday wish list!
If you're in Montgomery, AL, you can visit their showroom in historic Old Cloverdale at 1037 Woodley Road. Showroom hours are 9:00-5:30 Monday through Friday and 10:00-4:00 on Saturdays. (closed on Saturday during the summer months of June, July and August)
