This week Show and Tell Sunday is being hosted by Cerri over at Little Pink Studio and the topic this week is Vintage Jewels. I love vintage jewelery, and over the years I have aquired a very large collection. As time was not my friend this week I only have a small sampling to show you. I am really going to post a catch up on some of these topics some day soon.
This is a necklace my father gave my mother back in the 50's. She gave it to me a few years ago.
This Vintage Pearl and Amethyst necklace was give to me by my MIL
Another vintage necklace given to me by my MIL. She had been given this as a young girl by her Uncle.
