Sheesh! Where has February gone?! We’re at 4 months and counting..yikes!

Two weekends ago I represented Rodan+Fields at the Southern Women’s Show in Savannah, GA. When I returned from that trip, I had all kinds of brooches and lovelies for my vintage jewelry bouquet! The first two photos are packages I received while was out of town. The beautiful pieces in the first photo are from Dawn, one of Philip’s twin sisters. I love the colors! Especially the black pin with the purple stones. Very unique!

This second photo showcases some stunning pieces from my cousin Leah who lives in Central Illinois. The necklace and dragonfly were her mother’s. The small gold brooch with pearls and the pink/white flowered circle pin was her grandmother’s and the blue set was her mother-in-law’s. The other three pieces belonged to Leah. Absolutely gorgeous! And so special that these pieces have so much love and history behind them.

The week before I left for Savannah, I received the following pieces from my co-worker Ambrosha. I especially love that blue flower. The smaller pieces are going to look so neat attached to the larger ones. I can’t wait to see how Amanda weaves all of these together!

I’m so blessed to be surrounded by such loving and caring people…even though some are many miles away! Thank you Dawn, Leah and Ambrosha for contributing these fantabulous pieces of jewelry for my vintage jewelry bouquet. I wouldn’t be able to do this without incredible people like you.

I have EVEN MORE brooches to share with you. I’ve received 4 more in the past week! Stay tuned!

    Thanks Jessica! I can’t either! :) I have all of them in this gigantic Ziploc bag right now. Sometimes I sit in the middle of the living room floor and strategically arrange them in front of me…imagining what it’s going to look like when they’re all put together.
