How it all begun

Handcrafted sterling silver and PRIMERO Crystals® jewellery.

My name is Vickie and I am the founder of Vickie's Vintage Design...

My story began while my husband was very poorly with bone cancer in 2007. I needed something to take my mind off what was going on in reality and to maintain my mental health during this incredibly difficult time in my life, I found jewellery making was my way to do this, it has now become my passion in life.

Unfortunately, my husband passed away in 2019, so to keep me focused I carried on making my jewellery. This has helped me get through the most difficult time of my life, it keeps me focused and it gives me a purpose to carry on and to learn from life. It has taught me to persevere and definitely to never give up, I carry on my husbands legacy through me with what I do and I know he would be very proud of me if he could see me today.

My main inspiration is the love I've had from my husband and continue to have through my son and other people around me, this is what has kept me going. I wanted to share my work with other people so this is why Vickie's Vintage Design exists today, I love to make people happy with the work that I do, it brings a smile to my face every day to know I've achieved this and to bring happiness to my customers in this process.

From this it grew into something that I am very proud of today and I know my husband would be equally as proud of me to see what I have achieved today.

Thank you for listening.
