Vintage...this term is used a lot today...
The correct use of the word is to identify the year when wine was made...
The common use of the updated term describes something that is old enough to be fashionable again...not quite antique but very desireable...
Vintage jewlery is and always has been very desireable...
Vintage to Neely Phelan...this very talented jewelry designer means not only desireable but unforgettable..

Great jewelry...and a wonderful story! I love the one called He said, she said! Neely is an artist to keep track of : ) Life is about balance and certainly she has found a way to keep that! Love the world you are opening up to me, thank you!
My favorite is" Grass is Green on other side" Love the Elephant!!! But all of you items are great!!!
Congratulations, Neely, on your beautiful collection! The necklace, Blessings Upon You, drew me in with its rich history. I love a story!
Neely, it's so nice to meet you and your lovely vintage jewelry. I had to smile about how you go to your studio after your children are in bed. Now that's dedication and a girl after my own heart.
Your jewelry is gorgeous and I looked at each piece. You definitely have an eye for design. My favorites were the He Said She Said and Keepsake. I would be thrilled to receive one of your religious metals and the Vintage Bronze was my favorite.
I adore antique and vintage jewelry. My grandfather was a jeweler around the turn of 19th century and I have a couple of pieces he designed and I wear them every day. Your jewelry says a lot about who you are.
I wish you much success.

Funny I was just admiring Neely's pieces over on pinterest, they're beautiful works of art. Since I'm a huge fan of crests I love the crest necklace featured above.

This is such a wonderful way to met to new people! and talented artists! Neely's story is a delight to read! Her escape from reality is certainly to our benefit! I am drawn to Fools Rush In. Though it is vintage, it has an energy to it that says modern/contemporary to me, making it the perfect bridge form past to present.
Cheers,
John
I love re purposed vintage jewelry I just recently bought a necklace from a local shop in Calgary Alberta Canada. I really like the pieces Neely is creating. I like the necklace Saints & Sinners as well as the vintage Religious medals..

VINTAGE RHINESTONE SHOE BUCKLE BRACELET "BRIDE TO BE" Is just one of my favorite pieces Neely has done. But it is really to hard to pick just one because they are all so beautiful! I Love, Love, Love vintage jewelry! I really love what Neely is doing with these lovely old pieces. They are so much a part of who we are as women and our past. I wear my vintage jewelry everyday. Why store it away? I let it shine for all to see!
She is very creative. Her work is wonderful! My favorite is Point to Aspen. It was hard to choose just one. Loved your comment today on my blog... OK Mona, we have to post sticky notes on our foreheads....pictures, pictures and pictures!
So nice to meet Neely! Thank you, Mona!. As a jewelry hound in general, and a vintage jewelry hound in particular, I loved everything. Every piece has a style all its and a story to tell. Authentic and just what I love! If I have to pick just one, I think it's "The Black Widow". I love the religious medallions too! Love everything!
All of Neely's pieces are lovely. I particularly like the religious medal necklaces and the beautiful necklace that is featured on the giveaway is the one that I like the most.
Very best wishes for continued success.

Neely has such beautiful pieces...ALL of them! I especially like the lockets. A sentimental piece that can take you back to a memory with the vintage "charm"...so classic! You are very lucky to have Neely working with you! Your jewelry is exquisite!
Beautiful craftsmanship! Lovely pieces. I'm in love with the very first image...have been since I first saw it. I do however also love The Blessings Upon you too!
Thanks for the opportunity to be included in your giveaway!
I love how every piece is unique and that she found her passion after starting a family - what a great story. Well, you know I'd visit your shop even without a giveaway but that was a fun reason to browse around today. :) The Fools Rush In piece really caught my eye on your post as well as in the shop - plus I love the unique name too!
LOVE the cocktails at 8. Such a talented designer, Mona! Love her work. Modern/vintage is my kind of style.
I hope that you have a wonderful weekend Mona.

Neely's work is so incredibly unique - I've never seen anything like it! And, I love that because it's vintage....it's also one of a kind!
I was really drawn to Bride to Be & Grass is Greener!!!
Love how sharp your online store is looking.
Wishing you both a fabulous weekend!
xoxo Elizabeth
Just beautiful! Love the lockets, because I'm a mom, and photos near my heart is always something to treasure. Really had me with Cocktails at 8 though. Gorgeous! And what a fun look that would be for a great cocktail party.
Mona, so many lovely pieces I must admit I had a hard time narrowing down a favorite. I loved the Heart and soul for dressy occasions. The point me to Aspen for casual dressing. So many gorgeous pieces. Love the way she has combined the pieces together so cleverly. I also like that they are one of a kind pieces, makes them even more special. Thank you for the chance to win such a lovely giveaway,

How awesome is that-- to be a mom by day and jewelry designer by night! And a very talented one, I should add!! I'm just back from your online store (which is wonderful, btw-- I'll be back). There are so many pretty pieces that a "favorite" would be hard to determine. But among my favorites are "Playing Dress up" and "Patience is a Virtue". I also really like the chain with the ivory colored elephant-- that is adorable.
Thank you so much for stopping by my place today! I hope you enjoy the weekend!!

"Bride To Be" is my favorite! It is a beautiful piece. I just love what you are doing with vintage jewelry. I am a HUGE fan of vintage jewelry and wear mine everyday. It's nice to see someone taking these old vintage pieces and giving them a new life.
I love "The Bankers Wife." It is so beautiful and romantic. The name made me giggle!! Your work is gorgeous!
