I thought my christmas shopping was all done but now I’ve got one more! My secret santa has arrived! In case any doesn’t want to send whales, I also like sparkly, multi coloured brooches, you know, the kind your grandmother wears. Yeah, I’m a little younger than that but I love them anyways. Sometimes you can get them at flea markets or senior homes christmas sales, preferably a silver colour, not gold coloured. ---
