Brooch Collection

I haven't done a collection post in ages so thought I'd get some of my new brooches out for a photo shoot.
My button badges look so good when grouped together -

As do the glittery flowery kinds of pins -

And a bunch of charity pins put together -

My variety hearts -

A small assortment of vintage plastic brooches -

And an assortment of new and vintage animal pins -

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! I hope your day is spent with friends and family and chocolate and Easter egg hunts!

 Made this little Easter diorama jar. The flocked bunnies are adorable! I love this idea, think I'll make some more jar dioramas in the future.

DIY Solar Light Chandelier

Picked up this nice glass, but totally useless-as-an-electrical-light, chandelier from our local dump shop ($5).

Pulled out all the wiring and fixed up the ends. Found some glass crystals (ex-Xmas stock, only $3 for 8 of them) and attached them to give some sparkle and charm, and then added solar lights ($1 each) using hot glue to keep them in place.

Now I have a gorgeous recycled garden ornament that lights up the path of a night, and all for only $14.00.

Totally stoked!!
