I'm like a little bird...always bringing things back to my nest

Does anyone else remember...

these little silver spoon pins that were popular sometime in the 50's? I suppose that memory would have stayed there in the back of my mind forever...but this one in the Salvation Army jewelry case brought it to the forefront. I think that's part of the reason I love hunting down all this old stuff so much...it is a link to my childhood.
Here are a few more things I've picked up lately. These little satin bridal supply flowers were very white, so I tea dyed them. I think they make good centers for some pattern paper flowers.
Have a happy day!!

  2. Very late checking in on you Angela, just got home from a designer home for a featured model. I love your music... always walking in faith speaking the word.

    Love your litt;e treasured finds, it's so me, I will find things I know I can create from even if I don't have a vision for it at the moment.

    Come visit girl, I am going to take your music to my peaceful place.

    Blessings

  4. It IS funny how we want to go back to those things we remember from childhood. Although, I can't get into the "danish modern" that my mom had! Luckily, my family soon got into antiques so it saved me!
    Hope you're having a great weekend,
    xo,
