More boho bling


The floodgates have opened: I picked up more second-hand boho bling the other day. This (sterling? looks like it but I can't find a mark) bib-style necklace is actually pretty on trend now. But I bought it for its handmade looking quality and pretty florals.


I liked the beat up old-world elegance of this filigre pendant, quite large, suspended from a leather cord. This one could be 1960s or 70s but it's kinda hard to tell.

You won't believe where I found these pieces. Will tell you tomorrow.

  3. Hey Kelly! I'm a Nova Scotian thrifter who loves jewellery; and I sure am loving your finds. Visited my daughter in TO last fall and I loved all the Goodwills and thrift shops that we don't have here. But we do have killer Frenchies!

    Nice to meet you. And I try to be patriotic and follow as many Canadian blogs as I can (if I like them, that is!).
