As we all pack up and head for our favorite summer vacation destination, gather trinkets along the way and use them in a piece of jewerly! Even a Stay-cation can provide inspiration for a summer journey-inspired necklace or bracelet. Today we’ve featured two designs by Rose Noble that capture the theme just perfectly!

In the “Missing Key” necklace, Rose created polymer clay elements and altered Vintaj metals to hang as a collection of vacation trinkets. Visit our Idea Gallery for a list of beads she used from Rings & Things!

In “Road Trip Time,” Rose gives the necklace movement by adding our Spoke and a series of copper washers from Rings & Things. The alphabet beads allow you to customize your piece, so you can always conjure up memories of your getaway! Visit our Idea Gallery for a list of links to find these unique beads and the Vintaj elements used!

Create your own Summer Road Trip inspired piece of jewelry and submit it to our Design Challenge. Submissions are due this Friday, June 29!
