dolllady aka Pam says:Wowzers! This is absolutely gorgeous. I love the CZECH lady bug at the end of the chain. This should sell quickly or be a cherished gift.

Granny Nancy says:I agree with all of the above. It would be so cool on a multicolored top that had a lot of blues in it.

sweetjane says:Thanks you all!! I got a new/old computer the other day…so I’m hoping my photos will improve. I need a new background, is what I need. I’m tired of using the old gray thing I use…even though I was told early on that’s what to use.
