May News from
Vintages of Los Gatos 

Greetings!

 

May is a busy month. May 1st is May Day in much of the world, but in Hawaii it is Lei Day! Of course there is Cinco de Mayo, and the Kentucky Derby is on May 7th. Mother's Day is Sunday May 8th -- don't forget Mom! And we end the month with the Memorial Day weekend -- the Official Start of Summer. Whew! Have loads of fun the rest of the month.

Let us know what you think about our newsletter ... and our products as well. Give us ideas for content, ask questions and pass a copy along to a friend.

Lela Belle Charms
Lela Belle Charms for Mom
Moms are always there when you need them, even when you don't know it. They are one step ahead of disasters and one moment behind should you fall. Nothing is sharper than a Mother's eye or stronger than her love. See what Vintages has for Mother's Day.

Cameos and intaglios have been around for centuries ... back into the times of the Greeks and Romans, and even earlier to Biblical times. They were very popular during the end of the 18th and throughout the 19th century.  Jewelry featuring cameos and intaglios have been popular collectibles for several centuries.
