Jen!!! These broaches are AMAZING!!! I have two clear rhinestone broaches from the 50s...I found the for only $6 at a crazy little store in "downtown" Anoka. I LOVE THEM...and yours are beautiful. I wear them, I don't care if people don't get it...they are so feminine.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I love them too. I wear mine too. I don't care. I love them. Gotta love downtown Anoka (I went to Anoka HS).
ReplyDeleteI am DROOLING over your crystal brooches!!! I have a few that I wear as brooches, a few I added to some vintage chain, a few I glued to various things...
ReplyDeleteAll of your collections are great!!!
Thanks! I love them too. I have one huge one that I currently wear on my winter coat.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea to add them to a chain.
I'm trying to figure out how to make something so I can wear them in my hair. Enjoy! Jennifer
Love the shiny brights and cool they are in the original boxes. I dig them when they are all orderly in a row and the boxes have those great graphics! wish I would have know you needed the first two MS mag - I donated my whole collection a few months ago - was taking up way too much space.
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing your photos - I also love things with cherries on them - my kitchen is full of them and jars of old glass Xmas ornaments and some old shiny brite boxes are in the closet for display at Christmas and I also have several old clear rhinestone brooches and about 15 flower frogs. I own several old M Stewart mags too. Most importantly I have 3 cats: T.C., Jackson & Duncan who is 8 and a gray/black short haired tabby. He has only the normal # of toes though. I wish you continued success with your search for all the above delights - all smile producers.
