vintage treasures!

My mom and both of my sisters and I are all quite obsessed with finding cool brooches.

I found these fun little treasures at the swap meet today. The small cream flower one is actually a pair of clip on earrings (I gave one to Kalli) that I am going to use as a brooch. I have a dress that is made with delicate fabric that a pin would ruin, and it would be adorable with a brooch, so the clip on earring will work perfectly!
This is the rest of my collection. Soon to be joined with a cute yellow butterfly that I won from e-bay. Yay!
One lady we were buying stuff from today gave Trinity two of her very own pins! She is very excited about that. One is a cute fuzzy little bear, and the other is a tulip.
Eliana also is also finding a love for all things vintage. She loves wearing kexy's (sexy's, aka sunglasses).

Love it! What do you do with them? Are they tucked away or displayed? Your girls just get cuter!!

Grandma Freestone used to have a pair of those "Kexy's" as well. But I don't think they are very sexy.

Fun, you always dress and look so cute. I love all the fancy jewelry, but just don't feel comfortable in it. But I love seeing it on others. Hey, can you tell Kalli to call me 536-3304 or 243-3910. I need to talk to her about her plans for next year. Thanks
