I love packing stuff up and sending it off to a new home. It always seems like everything needs to go out on the same day, so I make a whole parade of it allowing it to take up the better part of a day. Lining up the boxes, wrapping the bags, gathering supplies... all that good stuff. 

The highlight of the day, however, was finding embellishments for various bags. I particularly like how these guys turned out. They flew off to New Mexico today to a store called The Fat Finch today.

This first one has a brooch that I layered with various other vintage goodies... another brooch, an earring. It's pretty easy to break those old pins apart and rewire other goodies to them... I highly recommend trying it. Try it on your yucky ones first to get the idea. It's pretty cathartic.
