Okay, so even though someone's dead Gramma might be rolling over in her grave about what her inheritance and old lovelies are being sold at or have been given away in a donation... I can't help myself, I LOVE seeking out Bohemian Bling at Thrift Stores and Yard Sales! *LOL* Sometimes my Heart almost jumps right out of my chest at the scores that can still be had if you're a determined and tenacious Found Treasure Hunter and the Seller isn't as appreciative of the piece as you are!
Today's Spring Thrift Store Score are the two above pieces of Bohemian Bling... the Necklace with the Cameo was a mere 99 Cents *be still my beating Heart* and converts to a Brooch!!! The Cameo is carved on the backside leaving the Cabochon Style Stone smooth to the touch on the surface and giving her lovely depth and dimension. I love Amber and Amber colored Stone, one of my fav hues for Jewelry since it is a color I wear a lot of in the Fashions I choose and it goes well with my ruddy complexion. The larger filigree Brooch with the Marquise cut Amber colored Stone *which is over a whopping 2.5 inches across* is also a Locket and also converts into a Pendant so I can easily make a Necklace out of it or attach it to one of my Bohemian Treasures Bags... it was only $2.99 *whoop whoop*! I love them both... and I especially love the ridiculous prices I practically stole... um, I mean got an amazing deal on them for! *LOL* And NO, I'm NOT April Foolin' Ya, those were the real prices these gorgeous old lovelies were practically being given away at... sometimes I'm just gobsmacked because right beside them was worthless crap with outrageously high price stickers ... sorry, I mean inexpensive common modern costume pieces overly priced. *smiles* Don't ya just LOVE the Thrill Of The Hunt!?!?!?!
