Earrings with vintage children's book images, repurposed charms, and vintage rhinestones (mounted on vintage found photo)
3.5" long

Spurred by a bequest of her beloved Grandma Kathy’s collection of jewelry and art supplies, Christine Stoll pivoted away from the nonprofit world, back to a creative life in 2010, and has been exploring ways to incorporate her love of vintage elements into art that uses found and repurposed materials. Based in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, Christine is self-taught with help from mentors and art instructors. Her creations are influenced by her passion for the past with a little bit of whimsy. The results, from jewelry to collage, can be found in shops around the Seattle area and beyond. A portion of proceeds is donated to ovarian cancer research in memory of her grandma.
