A New Creature Has Joined The Menagerie

[Catmom]

It's been a while since a new creature has joined the family. I have been looking for a turtle brooch for several years now but come to find out I'm really picky about turtles. Who knew, lol. There are so many turtle brooches out there but nothing that I really liked until I saw this one. I just love this little guy from his smile to his color and now he's mine! He's from the 1960's and is 18kt yellow and white gold with 37 turquoise cabs and 2 little ruby eyes. I can already tell that he's going to be best friends with Mr. Dapper.

And I especially love him on your t-shirt! Life is short - use the china and wear the jewels.

Thanks iluvcarats! Pretty much everything I wear these days is tshirts and jeans. Doesn't stop me from wearing any of my jewelry.

Thanks! A family photo will have to wait until next weekend. I'm down in FL right now and only have a couple of my friends with me.
