It's Sunday: Bring On The Bling!
It's that time again...
My collection is also known as "inventory"! Meaning I list the majority of my vintage bling at my store Heart-Shaped Rock Cottage. The only blingy jewelry left is this cute terrier puppy and this sweet teddy bear! Oh, and this adorable poodle! I am really attracted to animal brooches. Oh, how I love the bling too!
Here is my personal collection:
I have a thing for black and white. My studio colors. I also happen to love my .75 cent old frame from Goodwill.
I remember my favorite Great Aunt, Lillie Mae, wearing a brooch (similar to the rectangular one at the far right corner) at the top of her dress every single day. It was given to her by the love her life Jack B. Bryan of Wichita, KS!
The black and white beauties match my decor.
These match my mood most days! HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY!
Thanks to Cerri and Analise for hosting.
You can find a ton of links in their comment section if you'd like to take the bling blog tour. Pour yourself a glass of homemade lemonade. Or if the mood dictates a warm mug of tea. Or even a glass of red wine. Use a pretty glass though! I'm having Rasberry Passion Tea over ice in a lovely vintage glass.
And don't forget to sign up for my blog giveaway! All you have to do is leave a comment in the HANKIE GIVEAWAY post. You have until next weekend.
I've added this hankerchief and brooch to the collection in honor of BLING DAY today!
Thank you for visiting my blog and your comments about the art journal. I am glad I finally started it. It was hard to move from scrapbooking to art journal. I appreciate your encouragement and feedback! I hope to keep at it. Your vintage bling collection is gorgeous. Love the goodwill frame too!!
