Yeah...so glad you did join us. I thot that most of us could find a brooch from ebay, thrift stores, estate sales or make one if you are the crafty sort. Have fun, Denise!

Karen, thank you soooo much for the beautiful box filled with so many goodies. I love the vintage hankie, vintage brooch, and the adorable butterfly ribbon. Of course, all the candy goodies are appreciated as well. I have the whole collection on my dining room table...just beautiful!

I tried to upload a picture but could not get it to work!!!

Hugs,
Portia

Hi Portia-- Received the wonderful package you sent and I've been having a wonderful time peeking thru and finding treasure after treasure. Thanks so much. I really like the pin you made -- what a great idea, using an old ring.

Farmgirl hugs,
Karen

Karen, I am glad you liked everything!I could not find a vintage brooch around here so that is why I made one from an old ring of mine. It is certainly vintage because I graduated from high school in 1970 and I wore it during that time!! It is also the state flower of TN where I was born and raised...but haven't lived in 30 years!

Hugs,
Portia
