I only had time to get out a few pieces of my Grandma
Bochman's jewelry that I inherited. I wear the broaches all the time and sometimes the earrings. But, boy do the earings hurt after an hour! The really cool thing is that I have some photos of my Grandma wearing the jewelry!!! I borrowed all these great photos from my Aunt and scanned them for my own records. It was fun getting to know my grandparents before I was born, and recognizing the jewelry that I now owned was like winning the lottery for me. I treasure these wonderful
bling pieces even more now.
Here is a photo of my Grandfather and Grandmother
Bochman. I have been making pages for my family history books with the scanned photos of the jewelry along with the photos. This is just a portion of that page.
And then to my surprise, my husband gave me this
FABULOUS belt this weekend for my birthday. The buckle is made from vintage jewelry.
I love it!!!!!!
