My name is Kathy Patterson and I am the proud owner of Center Stage Jewels. 

I am a resident of both the United States (Allentown, Pennsylvania) and Canada (Calgary, Alberta).  My business is currently located north-of-the-border; but in the Fall of 2008, I will be relocating the entire business to my home in Allentown. 

I started out collecting vintage jewelry in my mid-20's.  When out antiquing, the sparkle of the rhinestones in the dealer's cases always caught my eye.  The next thing you know, I was filling drawers, shoe boxes, tupperware, every nook and cranny of my home with vintage jewels.  I had to start selling (as most collectors do) in order to feed my habit - and thus my first website was born:  Vintage Trinkets Costume Jewelry. 

I took a break from the business in 2001 and in 2007, my girlfriend Sheryl Hamilton offered to sell me her business, "The Family Jools".  I jumped at the chance because Sheryl had some absolutely STUNNING jewelry in her inventory and jumping back into the business re-lit the fire and passion that I have for these wonderful costume beauties.

If you're looking for anything in particular, PLEASE don't hesitate to contact me.  I have some wonderful beauties not listed on my site.

I really look forward to doing business with you, getting to know you and talking jewels with you.  And CONGRATULATIONS for not being "ordinary".  Wear vintage with pride!

Keep on sparkling!

Kathy Patterson
