A few weeks ago, my family got together to go through some of my grandmother's things. Part of her jewelry collection included dozens and dozens of pins, most of which were still left over after all of the children and grandchildren picked out momentos for themselves.
I don't wear pins. But they looked so pretty all together, I couldn't leave them for strangers. So, on impulse I took the whole pile of them, thinking I'd figure out some way to put them to use.
There were a series of turtles (also butterflies and an enormous collection of ballerinas.)
There was also a collection of cameo pins. Above is one of my favorites.
Unique little items like this pair of crabs. (The claws move.)
And a few of my favorite individual pins below (although I liked them all.)
I've come up with a couple of ideas of what to do with this unique inheritance - one of which I'll show you next week.

What would you do with all of these pins?
Have you ever inherited something that means a lot to you? What did you do with it?
