Flower Pin Debate








Well, this one is up for debate. I have a pair of these pictures, last year one fell and broke into pieces. It had sat in the closet for months. One day, I was looking at my vintage enamel flower pins. I was thinking.... They are so pretty! How can I display them? Then, a light bulb went off! Oh yes, that broken picture. Well, after a little tlc, here is what it looks like. It now hangs in my bedroom. Hey, at least now I can see those flower pins! The debate is: I liked the picture before and after. What do you think?
