The last couple of weeks i have been wearing my grandmother; Margaret Gardner's, exquisite collection of brooches and jewellery. She left them to me when she passed away and although i have had them in my possession for some time i have always been a little reserved in wearing them in fear of losing or damaging them in some way.
Lately i have stepped out of that comfort zone and indulged in the beauty of the aged pieces by dressing quite on the contrary and including the cameo brooch and ring as accessories. I always wear her signature ring on my right hand which i have always loved, it looks so classic in it's style, shape and colour of gold.

Her brooches are one of a kind and dad told me she used to go bird watching, which is wear she collected the little blue and white badge- it says on it Royal Forest & Bird Protection Society NZ-Member. I wonder if she wore that black and white name badge too?
It's a shame that grandparents leave us early on, there's so much to learn from them
Happy Friday! :)x o
Lovely collection Krystle. Sorry for your loss too. Hope you had a great night at the Brisbane Etsy Craft Party - you looked cute in your outfit (forgot to mention it to you :). The kitty cat biscuits were awesome too. Hope to see you at another market soon.
