Brooch Hunt

For my next post on Martha Stewart's Crafts Department blog, I decided to do a how-to for a necklace made of brooches.

This required a trip to one of my favorite stores in Brooklyn. Union Max, here I come!

Going to Union Max is like scouring the boxes at my great aunt Maude's house. Tell me you don't want to drown yourself in this deliciousness:

I also placed an order on Etsy with the ladies at ClassicStyleSupplies for some super blingy brooches to add to the mix. Can't wait to show you the results!
