Delicious Neck Candy: 7 Fresh, New Antique and Vintage Key Necklaces

Sometimes I get on a roll.  I get in my studio and I STAY in my studio, unmindful of the hours sneaking way past 3 am.  Through podcast after podcast and glass after glass of iced tea, out of these dream-defying moments some real magic can be made--like these 7 one-of-a-kind necklaces starring antique and vintage keys and components.  For sale now at Urban Heirlooms.  I hope you like them!
