The First Few

Well, I went and bought some supplies at Jo-Ann fabric & crafts last night so I could start wiring the pieces as I get them. I figure it's more time efficient this way rather then waiting to get all of the brooches and then wiring 50-60 in one go. Plus this way I can sort of see how big I want it and stop when I think it looks good. While I was at Jo-Anns I also found a pendent I really liked that I'm going to put into my bouquet. Here's a picture:

And then my Grandpa had given me a bunch of his old cuff links since he doesn't use them anymore. So I went through them and found two that I thought would work out real nice in the bouquet.

I'm really excited with the pieces so far and can't wait to get more. My mom said she's going to go through what she has and give me some, so there will be more pictures soon! So excited already!
