Char-Latte Creations

What is Char-Latte Creations?
If you were looking for something different you just found it. Char-Latte Creations are one of a
kind, custom made pieces of artwork jewelry. The jewelry is made out of old non-working pocket
watches, vintage watches, belt buckles, salt and pepper shakers, vintage jewelry, vintage
earrings, Victorian buckles, and anything else that I can see a creation in.

What is Memory Jewelry?
Make one of a kind pieces of artwork jewelry. I also make Memory jewelry. I take a watch or a
piece of jewelry from a loved one, and make a new custom piece for you to wear. These pieces
have visual signs of former wear which adds to their originality. Many watches I use are from
the late 1800's-1940's.

What is a Pocket Watch Collage?
A pocket watch collage (PWC) is a miniature canvas of art. I take old, broken, non-working
pocket watches and find new uses for them. I create one of a kind, unique jewelry art full of
vintage pieces of time. So many old items no longer have a useful, or popular purpose so I
have found purpose for them. Many of my pieces of work consist of a solo earring, unused
vintage pin, cuff links, original gears, watch faces, buttons, and much more. I recycle history,
craftsmanship, and time into a beautiful conversation piece. Some PWC have pieces of the
1800s to the 1950's inside of them, never to be duplicated. By taking old memories I am making
new ones.
