Sterling silver jewelry
Berta and I spent a bit of time shopping in Flagstaff. At an antique store I found some nice deals on the above jewelry plus a thimble. Every time I buy sterling I call it my retirement.

Four charm bracelets make a necklace
The little tower below the thimble is a charm of Desert View Tower located on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. One of the charm bracelets belonged to my maternal grandmother, one to my Mom, and two are mine. I’ve been collecting since I was a kid.

The wall mount mirror is for the camper and was made in Japan. Got that, plus some clothes, at the Goodwill weigh and pay where most everything costs about $1 per pound.

Tevas & a micro towel for traveling
In old town there are at least four outdoor sporting goods stores. I was in need of new sandals. The towel will be perfect for backpacking and my trip to South Africa.

I love the idea of combining charm bracelets into a necklace.
I love the silver charms Gaelyn and you are right, those sandals are PERFECT for your trip here. 🙂 It is the kind of thing I wear on almost a daily bases.
I love those charms.
hey there.
like your finds…that spoon brooch/pin very lovely and the charms are wonderful. is that little buggie thing a pendant piece? that is lovely too.
good find on the retractable mirror. those are always a nice thing to have.
my hubby was wearing his tevas yesterday…he loves his. has had them for many years.
take care
hugs
Nice sandals! You had a really good haul here.
That's a cute turquoise and silver bee charm. I'm going to have to try some Tevas sometime. I like my Birks, but only for paved surfaces.
I got my first charm bracelet from my grandma when I was five, and inherited hers when she died in 1996. I can't count the memories those charm bracelets hold! I love the idea of connecting more than one and making a necklace! Right now I have several of my (and Grandma's) bracelets framed and hanging on the wall – just too heavy wear. Great blog btw – I love all the photos!
All good stuff Gaelyn! I love the charm necklace…..I bet it was the little weiner dog charm that sold you, right?
I love your finds. I have a silver charm bracelet that was started for me as a kid. It is pretty heavy now, but what memories as I am sure your bracelets have. I also started one for my daughter as a little girl that I still buy charms for…
