Shawl Pin

I found this on Etsy.......................



Isn't it beautiful!!! I love it! I got it to go with the Girl Friday sweater since I have opted to not put buttons on it. I thought a shawl pin would be so much more chic don't you think??? Well, whatever. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! :)

If I'm not mistaken, this is made out of oak. I got it from Wooden Treasures where it is, of course, hand crafted. One of the things that I love about this shawl pin is that the pin itself is not straight so it won't pull out of the fabric easily. Also, I love how lightweight it is. The price was reasonable and the shipping was fast. Last time I looked he had a few more left. They are all unique designs and colors so I love that too!!

I hope everyone has a great weekend!! We have a date on Friday night to go do some sooper seekrit family restaurant snooping (more about that when I have details and can spill some beans) and then we have an early Thanksgiving celebration in Rome with my family on Sunday. We are really looking forward to that - always a good time. As you may remember from last year we usually lose all our money playing cards. Hopefully my aunt will at least keep the salt and sesame oil out of the whipped cream this year and stick to the sugar and vanilla. Sheeesh! Wayne will be making another one of his famous apple pies with fresh N. GA apples - YUM!!!!
