reclaimed, restyled and reinvented vintage jewelry

The Two Girls Gems collection is made by hand selecting quality vintage pieces and combining them with modern beads, chains and gemstones. Buckles, clips, brooches and chains are all reinvented; the transformation of each piece inspired by its unique vintage elements. The result is heirloom pieces for the next generation. We take pride in primarily using sterling silver or 14K gold or gold fill.

Life. Are we living it or running behind it?

Life. Are we present in the moment or thinking of our next errand or task? Are you in the moment of this summer day? Are you observing, smelling the sweet air, hearing the birds sing, lawn mowers humming - are you even outside?

Life keeps going by faster, as least for me. Weeks seem like days, months seem like weeks and my years just get all jumbled. The speed of technology does not seem to help this situation, and I always feel like Im behind it.  Information. There is just too much of it. And we seem to get caught up in the mealiness information while the important things around us are unobserved.

So we hope this summer you step away from your computer and enjoy the outdoors. Enjoy the sweet air, the butterflies, the uniqueness of all the flowers GOD has created, lighting bugs, stars and the shape of the current moon. Enjoy your family, friends and furry pets! Don't think that it is wasted time - in the end that is what we will remember. Happy Summer
