Once a Super Model....
Willy van Rooy with
Current Supermodels







Here I am beach of San
Pedro last month wearing
my own designs except for
the shoes.
When we lived in
Amsterdam (from 99 till
06) I sometimes worked as
a model, besides being a
buyer and making window
displays for the hottest
fashion store in Amsterdam.
I also made things for that
store like jewelry and little
evening bags, things I
could make myself quietly
at home. The center photo
is a self-portrait with one of
my necklaces. I like to take
pictures, especially portraits
and had built my own little
studio so I could give
myself (and others) a good
lightning to whisk away the
wrinkles, I did not have
Photo- shop yet which I use
now to make special effects.
This is what I am doing and
I sell them to friends and
other people who like my
things and at a point I will
make a website .
Some samples.... I never
make more than one of a
kind and the golden beads
I make myself so they are
all original. The beads are
pretty big.
On the left is a picture I
made of Alijah, my nine
year old granddaughter with
a bunch of the necklaces so
you can see better the size
of the beads, like I said,
pretty big.
