Broaching the subject
Jump to Comments
I shouldn’t admit this, but I’ve collected so many brooches I don’t even remember where any of them came from anymore.
Like the little clear crystal one in the top right — it may or may not be the one I found in an antique store in Belfast. I just don’t remember (because I have one quite similar).
Which means this collection is more of an addiction than anything. Brooches Anonymous, anyone?

I don’t think I’ve ever worn broaches. But I did have a phase where I put pins and buttons all over my purse though.

Teresa — Well, then, m’lady, it’s time to get on the broach train.
Janet — They’re so fun, aren’t they?
Erin — Why not cluster them together?
Bri — Yes! Full-on broach mode it is.

I think I saw a post a while back with your whole jewelry collection (if that’s even possible). You have so many!
Those brooches are beautiful.
I can never figure out a good place to wear a brooch…. although you are inspiring some ideas ;)

VancityAllie — Places to wear broaches? How about the grocery store?
Etrapar — A giveaway!?!? That’s brilliant. Except then I’d have to part with them. Don’t know if I can bear that.
Miss Neira — I never even thought of making them, but that’s such a great idea. Dressew here I come!

Ooooh I adore broaches.
I only have a couple of them though.
Mikes great aunt has about a zillion gorgeous “vintage” broaches (they weren’t vintage when she bought them) so i’m trying to stay on her good side in hopes she’ll send some my way haha.
Talk to me!
