Thrift Shop Fabulous; Vintage Brooch Ring.

Happy weekend, everyone! Who's in the mood for a simple (but fabulous!) vintage ring project?

I have been collecting vintage brooches ever since my friend Amy and I discovered our mutual love for all things antique, thrift and vintage a couple years ago when I moved back home to Ohio. And up until recently I had them saved in a little box that I would peek into every now and then and think to myself about all the lovely projects I would do with them ONE DAY. But if there is one thing I've learned over the course of this whole Cartwheels adventure (besides the fact that it IS possible to still function after going 48 hours without sleep), it's to seize each opportunity and to create when the inspiration hits. Which is why this morning I turned one of my favorite gold brooches into a one-of-a-kind vintage treasure that I can wear on my finger anytime I feel like it.

To create the project, I simply fastened the brooch pin around the ring blank and then squeezed a little dab of Amazing Goop Craft Glue in between the blank and the back of the brooch to ensure that it stays in place.

 
And just like that I was all dressed up with absolutely nowhere to go. :D

So excited to dive into my little collection and start making them all into something different...because to me that's the best part of this whole handmade art thing.
