Detroit, MI -- (SBWire) -- 01/08/2013 --Pink Eyed Sissies, known for creating handcrafted jewelry made from antique optometrist glasses, is a unique online business ran by two sisters with a penchant for designing vintage-style necklaces. The duo sees the endless possibilities through their rose-colored glasses at such places as flea markets or garage sales, where they find vintage oddities that have the potential to be transformed into one-of-a-kind works of art.

Upon browsing the current selection, antique lovers will be drawn to the personalized Ink Spot pendants, which utilize postcards from WWII inside an optometrist trial lens. Whimsy meets old-fashioned esthetics in the jewelry created by Pink Eyed Sissies, and loyal buyers return frequently to find such gems as the Sweet Spots and Vintage Pumpkin Head collection.
