About this Product
There are so many pretty, chipped pieces of china floating around, that it can be disheartening to see the chips. But if you look long and hard and think outside the box, you can envision something new. That is what I did with this piece. Both of the pieces I used to make this jewelry dish had chips and issues. So, I chose to embrace them and make them pretty. Pearls did the trick. No more ugly chips and now a pretty dish. It's fun and whimsical and can hold bracelets, rings and necklaces. Earrings can be hung over the side as well, so you can keep it handy with your favorite pieces.
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
I love finding pretty unique pieces of china...even with chips and scars. The two pieces I used to make this jewelry dish were not from the same maker. Very different from each other, but for me they just felt right together. First, I had to determine how I was going to take care of the chip. I have to tell you, it isn't easy making a flower out of very small beads, even if they are strung. I refused to give up, because I knew it would be perfect, and I was right. Once that happened, I used a special glue and attached the flower. Once that had set up, I used the same glue to attach the two pieces. And when it was sealed, I added the pearls to finish it off.
