About this Product
This fun tower jewelry dish started out as 3 sets of espresso cups and saucers. Then the unthinkable happened...a cup got broken. Now there were only two and a half sets...what to do?! Well, look for a lonesome candle holder of course! And not just any candle holder...it had to be just right! Once the candle holder was found, then the dilemma of the best way to assemble each one had to be overcome. So, playtime! After many starts and stops, the finish happened with the final item you see. And then of course, I had to add pearls! So now it's ready for your earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings and even pins. A one-of-a-kind item.
Tower Creations by Madeline
Meet the Maker
I’ve always loved creating, with a philosophy of renew, redo, and repurpose. My work includes scarves with a unique edging technique, fabric baskets, soft fabric pins, and repurposed treasures like wooden spool scissor holders and chipped china jewelry trays.
Driven by both sustainability and imagination, I transform scraps and vintage finds into functional art while also designing new, one-of-a-kind pieces. Each creation is made with care, carrying its own quiet story of transformation.
Inspired by the meaning of my name, Madeline, I see my work as a tower—grounded in strength, elevated by creativity, and open to light. I’m deeply grateful for my supportive husband, our blended family of four children, two daughters-in-law, and three grandchildren—my greatest motivators. And of course, Ollie, our four-legged house boss, who graciously allows us to share her home.
How it’s Made
When trying to repurpose items, I try to think of something useful or functional that they can be made into. The older I get, the more I think that way. A lot of times, I will try to find multiple uses for one item. I was really drawn to the vibrant color of these dishes. Cobalt blue is vibrant and stunning. I felt it would be very attractive once I made it. When assembling something like a tower, you have to do it in stages. You work from the bottom up. So, I began with the first cup and saucer. Then came the next saucer. After that was the candle holder and then the mug and the last saucer; using a special glue each time allowing plenty of drying and set up time. The last thing was to add the pearls. It is truly one of a kind!
