Goody Bags!!!

One of my friends gave me a baggie of old jewelry she didn't want.  When she first told me that she was giving it to me, I pictured like a sandwich-size bag with a couple of broken necklaces, maybe some costume jewelry.  Needless to say I was pretty stunned to get a rather large & heavy bag full of stuff.  


 I poured some of it out on the table...so much great stuff!!!

There's bone

Stone

Bangles

Kitsch

Crescents, charms and coins

Wood

Crystals

Costume

Beads of all kinds

HELLO!

I was surprised to find a box of shells & sand dollars that my pal Karen sent me!  She went to Sanibel Island last winter and brought them back for me.  Along with....

This.  Oh my god.

Yeah, just slightly stoked.

    Ha! Obviously she knows you well! What a great grab bag of goodies! What a lot of fun you'll have with that!

    Hope the storm isn't too bad in your part of the country - saw it tracking East and thought of you...

    A treasure of trinkets, methinkest. With your artistic prowess, I'm sure you are going to have one sparkly good time. Washington weather, very much like British Columbia wet coast, um west coast weather :)
