What would have been 5,50 Euro was 2,75 ($2.88). Fine quality costume pins, without those junky clasps. Each was missing a crystal, now repaired, and the stocking was also missing a bit of red which has also been repaired.
I have no clue who "R" is and didn't find anything listed on the web or on Illusion Jewels. What else is new....
Thanks for stopping by!

I also have one parrot signed R.. a mystery!
Nice pieces!
Love the Parrot. Beautiful.
lentilka11 - well, now we have two Mysteries. LOL!
Wandlessfairy, thanks! The parrot is what caught my eye when I looked in the jewelry case. I'm glad I was able to repair it.
Ms.Crys - I glued in one crystal per brooch. I have quite a few of all sizes and happened to have the right size for these brooches. I took a big fat red marker and dabbed it on the stocking where the red was missing.
:-)))))))
Can I ask what the best glue is for repairs like this? Superglue?
Loving the parrot too :)
Thanks Ms.CrystalShip, I'm a complete amateur so that sounds perfect for me!
I use Super glue. I use a toothpick to take a tiny bit of glue from the end of the tube and put it into the area where the gem would fit. I haven't had any problems using it.
