Jewels for Judy

Aunt Judy is one of my mom's best friends.  She's technically not an aunt, but she IS technically like a second mother to me. Her daughter Deirdre happens to be one of my oldest and most dearest pals...and she's getting married!  I haven't seen Aunt Judy's mother-of-the-bride dress, but I've been able to sneak a peak at her jewels for the occasion: Some amazing vintage pieces that belonged to her grandmother.  They needed a few adjustments, and she trusted me to make it happen (no pressure).

First off, the necklace was a little too choker-ish, so we added some length:

The earrings needed to have post-backs and also a little extra bling hangin' off:

I can't wait to see the whole ensemble together!
