OMG!!! You guys are sooo sweet and kind, and make me feel so good. Besides some book reviewing, I am a wife and fulltime mother. Every woman (but especially moms and wives) can understand what a thankless job it is, and without much praise for all we do day in and day out. So to get these compliments really means so much!! Maybe there is a little jewelry designer, photographer, and decorator inside me dying to come out (certainly no chef or gardner as I am a mess in the kitchen, and my thumb is brown). But I have fun putting things together, and making things unique. To answer pp's question, the charms I have borrowed from my LV suede fringe bucket and pochette, and you all must know by now I make the braids myself. They are easy for me to make because I make & design jewelry as a hobby. Here are close ups of the charms and braids, and one photo to show how beautiful b-bags look in the bright sunshine!!!
Ps....Deco you deffinitely brought tears of happiness to my eyes, thank you!
