Thrifty Saturday!

A pretty dish, some buttons, Maxey tin tray (it has a bit of rust, I hope I can get it off!) and beads to bedazzle...

Did you keep your pins from the 80's?

I think I may have? I don't recall exactly (which is unlike me...my brain is chocked full of useless details)...If I did keep them, they are in my orange plastic rainbow brite lunch box...or maybe pinned to my girl guide hat?  I am going downstairs to dig through my two bins of keepsakes...cross your fingers!

Update: Found them in the lunch box!

  2. i still have some of my pins! when those World Famous backpacks were popular, i put some on there and they're now in some random box in my room. i might have more buried in other bins in the basement. i can't imagine that i would've gotten rid of them!

  3. I remember friendship pins...safety pins with beads...seems like everyone had a huge bead supply back then too!

    Pin them to your shoelaces, your jean jacket, oh I forget....so many years have gone by but I still get excited over beads!
