Welcome to another installment of "My Jewelry Box". I hope you enjoy seeing some of my sterling silver charm bracelet collection (and one gold one). I got most of these beautiful items from garage sales, thrift stores and auctions. Each charm is somewhat of a chronicle of somebody's life. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for all the love! Hugs, SANDRA

    The building at 30.21 reminds me a lot of a Norwegian "stav-kirke" , so a very old wooden church from the middle ages or there about. Buildings and interiors in the Disney film "Frozen" were inspired by this building style. (Nature in that movie was inspired by the fjords and mountains in the fjord district of Norway, not that that's relevant here... 😉) I absolutely love the bracelet you had made out of those beautiful buttens, how unique and lovely ! 🤗 I love charm bracelets too, so seeing all yours was such a treat !

    Never in my life have I seen a fast spinner. So imagine my excitement to see a fast one when you said they spin fast. 😅I’m trying to identify some filigree charms on a vintage piece I bought 20 years ago when I was 12 but apparently I had good taste and realized I bought a lot of designer and collectible costume jewelry now that I’m researching them. I do remember wearing a necklace I bought for .50¢ at a garage sale and I was in middle school when I bought and wore it and a substitute teacher was walking past me and did a double take and asked me where I got my necklace. I said where I got it and for how much and she had an aghast reaction. Kinda struggled to get words together and said, “You know, that’s made by a VERY important designer. I have a big collection of that particular jewelry….” and trailed off. I just kinda stood there because it looked like she wanted to say more. I assume wrestled with conflicting thought on the ethics of making an offer to buy something off a student and possible repercussions as well as if a kid could be trusted with a one of a kind piece. (the designer never made the same thing twice I looked it up 2 yrs ago but he has a very recognizable style.) She then kinda regained composure and just said, “Take care of it, it’s important.” and walked off kinda in a huff I’ll admit. I bought it because of the weight of it. It was heavy, and I realized the necklace didn’t have a clasp at all. It was just a pendant on a single chain and the color of the metal, it’s weight and no clasp was interesting enough for me to buy it. The pendant wasn’t really my favorite but it was passable enough for fifty cents. I listed it for sale for $60 dollars online and someone tried to buy it with a really long message on how she collects it but didn’t because I was in the hospital. I did try to message her if she still wanted it a few months later but when she didn’t reply after a month or two with no signs of activity on her account, I thought about and just took the listing down and decided to keep it after all. So maybe it was a sign? Idk. But man this filigree stuff that looks semi-religious, I can’t find any info on it. So this charm bracelet I keep researching it every so often looking for new info. I spent the last 2 weeks trying to look up this necklace I have and been researching African wood and seed beads. Idk why but I have this urge to KNOW what I have. I can’t just relax with the mystery and beauty of the item.

Even when I'm selling jewelry, I can't always say who made it, and it often doesn't matter to collectors either. That's so interesting about the teacher story -- she must have been eating her heart out haha! Thanks for watching, I'll see ya soon, okay? Cheers.

    The little wheel at 12:52 is a grinding wheel for sharpening knives, axes, etc. Although I am the right age, nobody I knew had a charm bracelet. I was aware of them, but thought they were cheesy. Maybe it wasn't a thing where I grew up. On the other hand, they are a window into a stranger's life, and I am enjoying watching all the variety you are presenting in this video. The Goodwill stores in my area have a great selection of fashion jewelry, with the occasional vintage treasure to be found. Just Saturday, I got 2 MCM mixed Metal, turquoise inlay, cat brooches from Taxco for $5 each. I will be difficult for me to sell these. I have to ration my trips to GW, I can't go into one without dropping at least $100, mostly on jewelry. 😅 I did not know that charms were Sterling silver. I will be on the lookout for charm bracelets from now on. I am descended from Priscilla Mullins and John Alden from the Mayflower.

    Thank you for this video, absolutely love Charm Bracelets!. I had one that I collected since a teenager totally loaded as it was my life story, worth a small fortune. It has come up missing and it deeply saddens me so am tying to recreate it. One charm I will probably never find was a lion in a carnival cage with its tail up . When I was in grade school my Bluebird group visited the Zoo. And guess what? There were a Lion couple in a carnival cage, the female in labor and the male was pacing. As I stood in front of the cage the male lion came over near me, lifted his tail and sprayed me!!! And I actually had a charm that was exactly depicting that!!! If you ever come across one please let me know. Also Sandra we may be very distant cousins, I am a direct decendant (13th gen) of Stephen Hopkins of the Mayflower!! Yeah me and a million other people right! But its quite possible! I always look forward to your videos, very well made,always.
