Joan of Arkansas?

This weekend was pretty fantastic!  
Saturday lunch was spent with my love at House Pizzeria
one of our favorite new spots!
Try the Subterranean (or as I like to call it, 
The Subterranean Homesick Alien) 
pizza when you drop by, you won't be disappointed!

Then I played assistant to fabulous friend and photographer 
which of course was followed with Proseco at 
(I can't lie, I was back there for dinner on Sunday night 
(Happy Birthday Matt!)).

That leads me to today, after a great lunch 
with my loves Derek and Loren
I headed over to my favorite bead store, 
Sea of Beads where I found these fantastic vintage brass connectors!


 
I've been hanging onto this brass chain for the longest time, 
waiting for the perfect project to come along and I just about 
wet my pants in the store when I found these checkered findings!!

 
The project is close to completion but I'm still not satisfied. 
I'm playing around with the idea of leaving it plain 
or adding the extra chain as pictured below.
Let me know what you think and I'll be sure to post the final images!
Toodaloo my friends!

Brass connectors are essential materials for jewelry design, especially vintage brass connectors. My cousin, Faye, who is a jewelry designer always contact her brass tubing suppliers for her bracelet designs. Thanks for the incredible post, Stephanie!
