New Goodies to Play With

I got some supplies yesterday. I was basically stalking the UPS man. These pretties came from my mailman from Canada. I can't wait to play with all this vintage goodness. The fleur de lis crest & crown don't have holes so I'll have to drill them or attach these to filligrees. The round filigree is a setting for a cab & I have plans for the buckle on the right. Teresa had a cute tutorial on the Bellarama ezine. The flower cabs can be used as is or I can put something in the center. Perhaps some bling :) EDITED: I forgot to tell you. The Canadian goodies came from Paper Valise.

My cousin went to a gem & jewelry show & totally spoiled me. (Excuse these pictures. The UPS man didn't come until almost 6PM. Doesn't he know I need natural light for this stuff) I didn't even take pictures of all the things she sent me. I need to go & look up what the stuff above is. I think the purple/green rocks above are tourmaline.

Pretty, pretty. I love those flower cabs. The right size Swarovski chaton would finish them off nicely:)
