Man-Fashion and More

 My husband, the pastor.  Our small church is not a formal one.
This morning, however, he donned a short-sleeve dress shirt and tie.
I asked him, "Why not wear one of your tie clasps?"
I'm not sure he remembered where they were, 
so I retrieved them---
this collection we've amassed over the years from thrift stores
and garage sales.
And here's a teaser!
I found two pieces made of this fabric at a garage sale this week.
Even the seller wasn't sure what they were, but she had a bedspread made of the material.
I brought them home and have ripped out the seams
(which were obviously sown by a diligent professional).
Now I have a VERY long piece of BEAUTIFUL, exotic fabric!
I have a plan.

  3. Can't wait to see the Reveal on what your Plan for that Lovely Fabric is!?! I remember when my Dad had a vast Collection of Tie Clips and Cufflinks that he Collected from his many Worldwide Travels... I used to like to play with them as a Child... and my Mom's Bohemian Earring Collection. I Inherited the Earrings and my Brother Inherited the Man-Fashion.

    Thanks for your sweet comment about my Personal Space... slowly but surely I'm getting the house in Order and deep Cleaned... whew, what a Process! *LOL*
