Locket Love

I bought this bag of scrap at a flea market:

It contains the ingredients for a number of Tada! accessories!

All you need is a little imagination.

From the many choices, I picked out the lovely gold
locket (lower right) with a tiny cameo.
Isn't it pretty?

Then I added this to the other lockets I collected
over the years and attached them on a chain.

It's a wonderful way to keep photos of people (or pets) that you hold dear and you can take it with you wherever you go, like a little brag book on a chain.

It also makes for a nice milestone gift for a daughter
or best friend, with LOVE written all over it!

See you again tomorrow so I can show you what else
I made from my bag of scrap.
