Hello, i am the wacky creator behind Ruffles & Stripes! This independent company started in 2001 making acrylic & glass costume jewelry in the form of necklaces, rosary style necklaces, earrings and chokers. Through the years Ruffles & Stripes has continued creating costume jewelry and has upgraded to using swarovski and various other types of crystals. In more recent years I have incorporated gorgeous cameos both beautiful and bizarre, traditional rosaries, lovely fascinator hats and hair clips in many different styles and genres. We have also worked with magnets used for magnetic jewelry, tigertail wire used for fine wire jewelry, recycling vintage acrylic beads into new stylish pieces, chandelier earrings and cluster charm bracelets. Ruffles & Stripes create unique, hand-crafted, one-of-a-kind jewelry and accessories for those who like to look beyond the norm and into the whimsical & unusual side of life. Much time, care and passion are put into each and every piece that is created. When each item is complete, it looks for the perfect person to come along and show it off to the world!! ;)Tumblr (3.0; @rufflesandstripes)http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m17elsibsr1qcbuwlo1_250.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Model: Miss V</p> <p>Hair fascinator: Ruffles & Stripes</p> <p>Make-up, photography & retouching by: Veeutiful Makeup</p>http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/19644565280http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/19644565280Tue, 20 Mar 2012 18:03:28 -0400corpse brideRuffles &amp; StripesgothgothicalternativeVeeutiful Makeuphair fascinatorfeathersskullsskeleton handlace<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpbmpgv4jy1qcbuwlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Model: <em>Punkturekid</em></p> <p>Hair fascinator: <strong><em>Ruffles & Stripes</em></strong></p> <p>MUA: <em>Veeutiful Make Up </em></p> <p>Photography: <em>Veeutiful Make Up</em> </p>http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/8400165294http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/8400165294Tue, 02 Aug 2011 18:05:00 -0400alternativecandiescandycookiescupcakelolitalollipopsmodelpiercingspin-uppinuptattoosstrawberriesdoughnutsPunkturekidVeeutiful Make UpRuffles &amp; Stripes<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpbmi0n3UH1qcbuwlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Model: <em>Punkturekid</em></p> <p>Hair fascinator: <em><strong>Ruffles & Stripes</strong></em></p> <p>MUA: <em>Veeutiful Make Up</em></p> <p>Photography: <em>Veeutiful Make Up</em></p>http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/8399977213http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/8399977213Tue, 02 Aug 2011 18:01:12 -0400lolitasugar skullalternativetattoospiercingsmodelhair fascinatorpin-uppinupbustierVeeutiful Make UpPunkturekidRuffles &amp; Stripes<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lp24i2OAOX1qcbuwlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Model: Punkturekid</p> <p>Hair fascinator: Ruffles & Stripes</p> <p>MUA: Veeutiful Make Up</p> <p>Photography: Veeutiful Make Up</p>http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/8180056256http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/8180056256Thu, 28 Jul 2011 14:54:02 -0400sugar skullalternativepinuppin-upglamourtattoospiercingsbustiermodelpolkadotslolita<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo6fqredgG1qcbuwlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Hair Fascinator:  <em><strong>Ruffles & Stripes</strong></em></p> <p>Model:  <em>Megan Renee</em></p> <p>Photographer:  <em>Richard Marz</em></p> <p>Make-up:  <em>Denise Hart Larsen</em></p>http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/7495766124http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/7495766124Mon, 11 Jul 2011 12:13:39 -0400Megan ReneeRichard MarzDenise Hart LarsenRuffles &amp; Stripesmodelalternativepinuppin-uptattoospiercings<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo6fldUo4W1qcbuwlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Hair Fascinator:  <em><strong>Ruffles & Stripes</strong></em></p> <p>Model:  <em>Megan Renee</em></p> <p>Photographer:  <em>Richard Marz</em></p> <p>Make-up:  <em>Denise Hart Larsen</em></p>http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/7495672566http://rufflesandstripes.tumblr.com/post/7495672566Mon, 11 Jul 2011 12:10:25 -0400Megan ReneeRichard MarzDenise Hart LarsenRuffles &amp; Stripestattoospiercingsblondealternativemodelpin-uppinup<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo6f82Boab1qcbuwlo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Hair Fascinator:  <em><strong>Ruffles & Stripes</strong></em></p> <p>Model:  <em>Laura Rachel</em></p> <p>Photographer:  <em>Travis G.
