Dressing Up the Great Outdoors

I’ve had a little stash of six old rhinestone shoe clips left over from my mom and my grandma from back in the 1950’s — this used to be a thing (and I guess it’s back for weddings and such) — you had a pair of basic pumps and you could add bling to dress them up for the opera or whatever… anyway – they’re a bit beaten up missing a stone or two, but generally quite lovely.  I decided that my lace & chenille umbrella needed dressing up – so I glued clutch-back pins to the shoe clips and pinned them into the various lace overlays – it’s pretty and keeps the wind from re-arranging the lace.  Win Win!
