I love it! What a great way to display old family items. Think I might have to make one myself! :)

So thats why the crooks couldn't find the jewels . Hidding in plain sight. hehehe I love it . The wall hanging is great too. When I was a kid , I always kidded my grandma about her jewels. I told her when she croaked I got her "jewels". I tell my grands the same thing now. That when I croak they can have mine. hehehe

Love this idea. Can I borrow the tree design. I'm sure garage sales would give me enough shiny trinkets.

Someone was on Antique Roadshow with a dressmaker form covered in old costume jewelry. She thought it was pretty and not worth a lot. Turned out it was worth about $15K. Some of those old pins are worth a fortune - just check any antique shop.
