I have been buying a lot of vintage jewelry on eBay lately. The funny thing is, it's all the kind of stuff that I wore when I was a teenager. Ha! I guess I'm vintage too!Merrie Destefanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04447209247265513676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8326561231306866122.post-23740648121700807792007-12-17T09:42:00.000-08:002007-12-17T09:42:00.000-08:00Awwww... sweet post!

I love anything silvery and sparkly. <BR/><BR/>Your post reminds me of a story my dad tells about how some young carpenters were in awe of his wooden measuring tape. They were exclaiming over it and saying things like, 'Wow, I've never seen one of these!' and 'Where'd you get this antique?' He said it was startling because it was simply something he'd used for 50 years and to him it wasn't any more unique than a hammer or nail.<BR/><BR/>I found you via the Carnival of Creativity, by the way. :)Tui Sniderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18145811441026282832noreply@blogger.com
