CatMom's Expanding Pin/Brooch Menagerie

[Catmom]

Every time I dip into this thread, it's total love for all of your beauties. Would love to see them worn as a charm necklace.

Aww thank you! I need to find a chain I can do this with.

I love your dragonflies & omg it looks so sunny!

LOL, yes sunny and 80's today!

For those of you that asked for a group shot I tried my best. I usually don't do these because I always manage to make every one look awful. No sun here today only rain so I had to use the lights on my island. My critter collection is growing plus there are a couple oddballs, lol, but here it is....

Swoon!

Each piece is lovely but all together? Hot damn!

I may have added another piece yesterday but it's not a critter, lol. Stay tuned!

 

[Catmom]

Well my latest is not a critter but I could not pass it up! 2.0cttw of G-H VS2-SI1 OMCs and OECs and maybe a possible OCC. English Victorian Horseshoe brooch.

[Dancing Fire]

That's an interesting idea. I would love to see photos of something like that. I'll have to go searching. I've never worn my pins that way but I could see maybe a paperclip chain with the dragonflies on it. Hmmmmmmm, LOL.

I don't have all of them here with me but I took a few quick snaps for you of what I have. Not real good photos though.

Beautiful collection CM!

If I wasn’t on a self imposed (and necessary) bling ban I’d snatch these up. I thought of you immediately when I saw these.

Sigh, me too. I just got those two other pieces so I'm on a bling ban for a while. Crying here........
