VINTAGE BOUNTY!
I'm not sure exactly when I became infatuated with vintage jewelry, but my fascination with these lovely accessories continues to grow as my collection becomes larger and more diversified. I remember my grandmother's jewelry box - oh how I longed to play in her sparkling treasures. On occasion, she would let me try on some of her pieces and I remember feeling like a princess (I would also play in her Coty Cosmetics, but that's an entirely different story). I think the thing I love most about collecting antique jewelry is the absolute uniqueness of each piece. Although I'm sure there are duplicates out there, you can be confident that the pieces you acquire, for the most part, are one of a kind.

GUINNESS!

Hello dear! I love collecting seedlings from this maple down the block. I love to press flowers and draw them. I adore watercolor paper of all types, so when I can I collect those. Most of all I would love a collection of old leather photo albums, you know the small, quaint type. I have an article on crescendoh.com, come check it out! Blessings.
