And so it begins....

Hi everyone and welcome!

This is the beginning of our new blog where we will be posting information about our antiques business- Forever Yesteryears Antiques and Collectibles-and our handmade jewelry business-Uniquities! Jewelry and Accessories.











Born out of our fondness for antique and vintage costume jewelry from makers like Sarah Coventry, Coro, Weiss and Trifari, Myra and I decided to start making our own jewelry, initially utilizing, among other components, glass beads and Swarovski crystals.

From there, we began making our own hand-fashioned beads from polymer clay and incorporated them into our designs.

Every single one of our polymer clay beads are unique. Therefore the jewelry items that we create with them (necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, pendants, etc) are one-of-a-kind as well.

We've developed over 30 different color patterns in our beads and are always looking to create more.

From time to time, we'll be showcasing our more popular color patterns on this blog along with some of our jewelry designs. Information on our various antique, vintage, and collectible finds will also be posted.

Please visit our online shops by clicking on the logos above.

We'll be posting twice a week to start and welcome all of your comments, critiques and thoughts.

Blessings to you and yours,
Mark and Myra Johnson
