Giving history a beautiful second life.

Welcome to

Emily’s Cottage.

Hi There, I’m Emily!

I am from beautiful Kentucky, a mama to two sweet boys and married for 10 happy years. I have found this new passion of mine and that is, I create jewelry from vintage china, dishware, and glass pieces rescued from attics, thrift shelves, and forgotten cabinets. Transforming these fragments into wearable art brings me deep joy, and I hope each piece brings you that same happiness.

Every item I work with is given a beautiful, happy second life. By repurposing vintage china and glass, I keep precious dishware out of the landfill and give these materials a fresh purpose: new memories and more stories to live. Each piece is handmade with care; I pour my heart into every step of the process, from selecting the fragments to finishing the final detail.

Because they’re handcrafted, no two pieces are exactly alike. Each has its own imperfections, history, and character, a small worn edge, a tiny glaze variation, a faded pattern , all carrying their own stories and love. I hope when you wear one of these pieces, you feel beautiful, happy, connected to those past moments and inspired to create new ones.

Thank you for your time and visiting my site. It truly means everything to me.

-Emily ❤️
