A Little Bit of Bling

Aren't these little orbs of bling pretty! I started collecting these last year. Little round balls of bling among an old piece of petticoat lace. Such a pretty combination.


I hope this qualifies for White Wednesday, the old white petticoat and the white sparkle of the rhinestones....




My 3 favorites...


And a few more favorites...



I guess I like them all!


Someone asked...yes, they are vintage for sure. I'm not sure how old, I can tell some of them have to be from the 60's/70's but others definitely have the that old metal look. I wish I knew more about them.


Some of you have asked what I'm going to do with them. My first plan was to hang them in a window by very fine monofiliment fish line at all different lengths, which I probably will still do with some. Since I don't make jewelry, I'd like to tie one onto a little bottle with a piece of lace, use them as little adornments on various things.



I'm glad you all enjoyed seeing them and that I found something to post that several of you have never seen.


Thanks for stopping by!


Linking to Faded Charm for White Wednesday.




Happy to Design for Sunday Favorites
