There's going to be a lot of talk here on the big basement clearout until the contractors arrive so bear with me. As I open forgotten boxes and sort the contents I'm always impressed when I see a collection happening. Like my wood bowls, I appear to be drawn to certain items when I'm at thrift stores. It shouldn't surprise me then that I found I have this beautiful collection of vintage white celluloid brooches.
And one green one.
What am I going to do with them? I have no idea...brooches are not something I typically wear. For now they go into the "unsure" pile and it's time to keep clearing.
Thanks to all who chimed in on my last post! The mystery items were quickly identified as grooved butter paddles and a sixth finger stiletto. You guys are so smart. And I love Carolyn's idea about actually using the butter paddles in my preschool for their intended purpose.
