Lily Flower
Vintage is on a mission to search out lost and forgotten treasures and
bring them back into rotation. Scavenging at swap meets, flea markets,
garage sales and thrift shops, founder Lily Braverman unearths jewelry
pieces and tchotchkes with promise, revamping and recombining them to
form new and current accessories.
Based in a desire to utilize resources we already have as opposed to fabricating new things, Lily Flower Vintage jewelry always features second-hand focal elements. In addition to being eco-friendly, each one-of-a-kind piece carries its own history, hearkening back to stylistic moments of the past.
With a wide variety of important style movements contributing components, Lily Flower Vintage has a unique piece to suit every personality.

Cause2be
"Hi! My name is Cinthia Granadino and I am the driving force that is Cause2be. Cause2be
was born from my love to create. I grew up with a very artistic father
who always encouraged me to express myself through art.
My admiration
for fashion has always been a part of my life and I naturally became a
fashion design student once in college. I worked as a visual
merchandiser and was always inspired by the clothing and jewelry around
me. I finally decided to put my ideas into action and start creating
jewelry and accessories about a year ago. Friends and family have been a
driving force for me to pursue this as not just a hobby but as a
vocation. In
my effort to be earth friendly I try to use salvaged materials whenever
possible for the trinkets I create. I buy from swap meets, flea
markets, garage sales and sometimes take apart my own jewelry to
construct pieces to sell. I take used/vintage jewelry to make new
pieces. I'm a big supporter of all DIY'ers like myself and truly
appreciate all that time and effort that goes into our passion. "
"I'm very excited to share my creations with you and hope you love my items as much as I love making them!"

Le Modern Trinket
Christina Sanchez, owner and energy behind Le Modern Trinket,
started her company in December of 2009. Inspired by art, vintage items
and photography she decided to self teach incorporating things in which
she loves.
Heavily influenced by the 18th century – 19th century era, Art Deco,
the Dada and Bauhaus art movements and by artists including Kurt
Schwitters, Marcel Duchamp, Robert Rauschenberg and Hannah Hoch,
Christina began to up-cycle found objects into unique wearable pieces of
art. Making jewelry as a hobby soon changed when the owners of Gallery 212
saw some of her pieces and soon she had her first handmade show that
she organized at Gallery 212 in March 2010 called “The Modern
Tchotchkes”.
Outgrowing her space and needing a studio, Christina
converted her garage into a work space. She has since shown at various
handmade shows like Patchwork Indie Arts & Crafts Festival, Handmade Brigade of Orange County, Roots Roadhouse at the Echoplex, many gallery openings, art events and organized handmade fairs like the first A.C.E Art Crawl Experience
handmade show. She also does commission pieces in which many of her
clients will give her their family mementos in which she calls “Memento
Art”.
Not every piece is derived from jewelry. Christina Sanchez utilizes
things like vintage photographs, tintype photos, radio resistors, vacuum
tubes, capacitors, photo flash cubes, watch parts, door henge’s,
cabinet locks, rosaries, Bakelite Mahjong tiles and matryoshka dolls.
What first began as making earrings evolved to making necklaces,
pendants, rings, brooches, hair accessories, customizing necklaces,
bracelets and most recent cuff links. She’s also started to dabble in
housewares with making magnets.
