Item Description:

 

***RARE and Beautiful Kit!!  Very pretty kit called, Jewelled Queen, this is a Dexter's kit that was available at LeeWards, stunning kits, the black and white picture won't do it justice but it's stunning!  Glitters and glistens on the tree like you can only imagine!!!  Beautiful Ornament Kit!!!! *****

 

****These old sequin and/or bead ornament kits are getting harder and harder to find!  Enjoy the selection and shop early for best selection!   So much fun and memories a lot of these have behind them.  Sometimes packaging has some wear, they average around 40-50 years old in most cases, some wear is to be expected.  We (Mom and I) checked them over, occasionally we added a staple as the most common thing it seems is the staples start to pull out of the headers or the paper just gives up a little bit, otherwise unless stated otherwise these are all vintage and original ornament kits!  In some listings more than one is available and are all pictured in the photos at some point, in that case keep in mind unless is states otherwise the listing is only for ONE kit and you will get one of the pictured kits.  It needs to be done this way per eBay duplicate listing polices and I just pull one from the inventory once a purchase is made at random.  Enjoy the history, memories and take some home today!  You never know, is this the last kit like this left?  I have my favorites and I'm sure you have yours.  These ornaments have meaning and love to them when you know how much time and work someone made to make it for you. They glitter and glisten more then any other ornaments you could ever buy!  I miss LeeWards now those were craft stores!  Such a more simple time and just so much fun and nostalgia to these!***

 

THIS IS A RARE VINTAGE ORIGINAL ORNAMENT KIT!  All details of the kit are shown in photos, the auction title and the item specifics.  A Beautiful Sequin and/or Bead and/or Pinning Vintage Ornament Kit!  These are the most beautiful type of Christmas Ornaments you can have on your tree!  They sparkle and glisten more then any other ornaments you could ever buy!  Such a great feeling and look of amazement when you see these on your Christmas Tree and you know that you made it, not just bought it!  This year instead of stating the ornament kit title here I expanded the amount of pictures for you to view all the details on your own, it saves me time from typing everything in the title and item specifics to just have to type it all here again.  I tend to label everything as a sequin bead ornament kit but the pictures and descriptions may show some are just bead, some just sequin, some just cloth and pinning as I have a huge variety.  All beautiful!  I also label things as ornament kits but there could be a rare one designed as a centerpiece or table top decoration.  However on those my Mom almost always added string and turned them into ornaments, so to us they are all known as ornament kits!  ***Information on multi item listings is below, often if there is more then one I picture them all in the last 2 photos both front and back sides showing that you will get any of the ones shown and at the start of the listing that's how many I had (by the time you read this some may have already sold), unless stated otherwise the listing is only for ONE kit.  Thanks.*****

 

Always check out all photos, often packaging on these older kits has some wear.  All the details of the kits can be seen in the photos, sometimes the kit shows as example the ornament in blue, but it may have been available in multiple colors.  If space allows I try to note the colors in the title and also I use the item specifics that eBay recommends sellers to use.  As example if item specifics say "Satin Beauty (Blue)" that means it's satin beauty in the color blue (obviously not every piece in the kit is blue but in this example blue would likely be the satin, cloth or beads/sequins color scheme.  The pictures can be expanded to show all the details of the kit, how many it makes, the wear on the packaging, etc.  The kits are photoed well in bright light so you can see all the details, they are all vintage original kits!  Also one kit shows a picture with a tape measure for you to see sizing of the kit and pieces.

 

Another good thing is that I offer free shipping and my items are eligible to not only earn but use eBay Bucks on.  Be sure to sign up for eBay Bucks if you are not currently subscribed.  Also possible to save more at certain times as eBay takes part of eBates that is also known as Rakuten.  On my listings you earn eBay bucks on the full amount of the sale.  You don't earn eBay Bucks on shipping so use that to your advantage!  My kits are priced according to rarity of the kit.  The higher the price the more rare the kit is.  Some of these kits it can be years before you see another one get listed and then you have to wonder?  Is this the last one?  I have Sulyn, Merri Mac, Herrschners, Sunrise, Leewards, Walco, Holiday Industries (Which is actually Walco and the name changed in the late 1970's but is the same as Walco), York Crafts, Thomas Boutique, June Zimonick, The Cracker Box, Dexter's, THL Crafts, and more all listed as of the time I launch all the listings.

 

Shipping Info:

 

I ship ornament kits by placing each in a inside a box, most are also bagged for safety as with age some kits can start to have inside packaging give in a bit and parts can start to move around in bags and I do that on some for safety.  I will NOT ship them in padded mailers like some sellers do as something that is fragile and 30-50 years old should only be shipped in a box!  Ages on the kits range, from late 1960's up to the very early 2000's but most are from the 70's and 80's.  The only time I ever use only a padded mailer would be if it's just a bead kit with no forms in the packaging.  We package with CARE!

 

Keep in mind the kits are old, while new old stock we have found that almost all, if glue is included, it's dried up long ago.  Sometimes you have extra pins, fabric, sequins or beads and sometimes you are short pins, fabric, beads or sequins.  Often the Styrofoam or Dylite forms may have some indention's or bubbles on the foam, Satin Balls may have a few frays but this does not affect the ornament at all and is very common.  Sometimes if pieces are flocked there can be some loose fibers in the packages or some light fading to flocked pieces which is very common. Very rare but sometimes from fabric in a package there can be some bleeding to the other pieces but usually doesn't affect anything once completed.  Also mainly in Walco kits if you see little Pixies, Angels, Mice, Deer or Santa's it's not uncommon with the vintage kits for them to have a variance from what is pictured, I've already seen female deer pictured but bucks included in the bag as example Frays are easy to fix with Hairspray and dents or dings on foam is easy as it's almost always covered by something.  My mother said that was all common back in the 70's and it all happens today as well. Hobby Lobby and/or Jo-Ann Fabrics has been our best friend when we run into these problems ourselves and in almost all cases we have found what's needed when we are short on something. 

 

Understanding of multi item listings:

 

Some of my auctions have more than 1 ornament kit available, each ornament kit is pictured front and back in the last few pictures to show that some may have more wear to packaging then others but I just grab one and ship it to you, they are all equal and beautiful.   The listings are for only 1 ornament kit unless stated otherwise, I just picture them all in the last photos to show that some have more wear then others and I just ship the next one once purchased and take them out of inventory in no particular order.  We do have more than one kit of some available, so it needed to be done that way to avoid breaking the ebay duplicate listing policy, I will randomly ship you any of the kits that are pictured in the listing as all have some wear to the packaging, please keep that in mind if you see a picture of one you don't want as to me they are all equal and the packaging is older and pretty much going to show wear on all, if anything major is going on with a particular ornament kit or packaging that one will be listed as a separate auction or I wouldn't list it at all.  Some kits have writing on packages, which is common, some have wear, which is common, some have added newer staples as the old staples the kit came with are starting to tear or loosen up but kits are closely checked and are New Old Stock.  If it's listed it's my mother approved, any thing that wasn't approved by my mother was likely already cleared out in separate lots a while ago.)

Return Policy Information:

 

I do offer a 30 day return policy.  However, what you see in photos is what you get or one of the ones that you will get if a multi-item listing. The pictures are part of the description. Please look closely, as in most cases packaging shows wear and/or fading. If I see something of importance that will be listed in the first part of the description above next to where the actual kit up for auction is stated. I always try to do my best to be clear, fair and honest. As a buyer myself, I expect the same. If you have any questions please ask BEFORE bidding or buying. Thank you! 

 

Payment:

 

Payment accepted by eBays managed payments system, which allows you to use nearly all types of online payments.  You are responsible if the item is sent internationally for any import or tax fees.  I only ship to certain international areas as is listed in the shipping area.  Also any order over $750 requires signature confirmation per eBay rules.  While that's rare to happen I have to mention it.  Thank you so much!

 

Closing Info:

 

Stored in a pet and smoke FREE home.  Prior history of the kits and where they were stored, etc is not always known. 

 

Thanks for looking and have a great day!
