Vintage Jewelry...

Perfect Embellishment For A Jean Jacket

I recently acquired a huge selection of vintage jewelry. These are all pristine, sparkling treasures. I have a few that are favorites, so I chose these two to pin to my favorite jean jacket. (There is a single stone missing from the leaf pin, but I'm going to go through my Swarovski gems to see if I can use one to repair it.)

Vintage Pins For Future Projects

I know I'll use a number of these in future craft projects. Perhaps I'll use them in upcoming pincushions or decor pieces.

More Vintage Pins
 
I haven't looked at the backs to see if any of this jewelry bears a special maker's mark, but I'll definitely be doing that prior to adding them to my projects. For now, I'm just going to enjoy them in my typical Scrooge McDuck fashion. Yep. Mine. Aaaallllll mine. (wink)

We'll Be Outdoors Today...

Liljegren's Hickory Hill Farm
 
Time for outside work today. I have herbs to harvest for drying, and it's time to put the garden to bed for this year. We'll be enjoying the outdoors while we store things away and prepare for winter. There will be time for stitching and sewing later. Enjoy the weekend, friend.
