Brass Animals Part 2

Here are a few more pieces from my collection of brass animals:

This pelican comes from the Route 65 Trading Post. It was part of the bunch I got from Ed on Christmas 2012.

This frog is also part of that bunch mentioned above.

I can't quite remember for sure, but I think I got this pair of deer from Goodwill.

This rabbit is yet another one from the Route 65 Trading Post Christmas gift. I love how it's perfectly balanced!

If you wanted to see the first bunch of brass animals I posted, click here :) I don't have a whole lot of info with this post since it's a continuation of a previous one, but as always if you have any questions don't hesitate to leave them in the comments!

A Ship, A Deer, And A Mustached Man

Here are a few things from my wall that I put together for no particular reason (other than I liked how they looked as a group).

That mustached man was the one thing missing that I pointed out from this post.

I picked up this little guy from a community church yard sale a few years ago. I just thought he was so silly with that hair/mustache/hat! I kept him in storage until we had moved into our place in CA, and then I found he fit in quite perfectly with the collection on my wall. Thankfully he didn't break when he took a tumble!

This deer comes from the Salvation Army in Wilkes-Barre, PA. Just a random trip I took one day and I stumbled across it in the very sparse photo/wall decoration section. The stickers peeled a bit of the paper off, but that adds to the second-hand nature. (Why do they always put stickers ON photos rather than on the backs??)

I got this ship at a yard sale - out of a box of photo frames and the like. I grabbed some frames as well (featured in this post). They were all a quarter each. Definite score.

Necklaces

I love finding unique vintage necklaces. They can really pull an outfit together, and they're usually much sturdier/better quality than modern ones. Here are some mine!

I use the same chain for the orange one as do for the one on the left - that's why that one's all alone. I always seem to have more charms than chains.

This owl comes from the Hometown Flea Market in PA. I actually wore it so much that it broke, and I'm attempting different ways to fix it. (Anybody have tips? The very bottom/tail broke off. I tried superglue but it fell apart again.)

I got this jumping deer at a community church yard sale. It's one of my favorites because of how detailed it is - plus I grew up in the woods.

I found this one at the Attic in Bethlehem, PA. It has a crack in the stone, but so far it hasn't actually fallen apart (knock on wood!).

This one also comes from the Attic. I definitely recommend that place for unique jewelry. They have more than just jewelry, but that's usually my main reason for going in.

I got this one a long time ago at a yard sale. I haven't actually worn it yet because I've been meaning to get a thinner chain for it (this one is too thick/awkward for me).

I know I have more, but I've grown out of them/they are back at my parents' house in my childhood bedroom. 

Happy Thrifting!
