Ugly Can be Beautiful

Or silk purse from sow's ear. Or would it be the opposite in this case? I found this very ugly purse in the thrift shop. The little hearts are perfect for my cuffs.


You can see the little hearts on the two bottom ones here. They look blue but they are silver and reflect the light. The glittery gold mesh doesn't show up very well on the first one but when you see it in the right light it looks very nice.

Maybe you could cut a cuff out of the purse!

ha ha Yes, I have to agree..that purse is pretty darned ugly! But you proved that beauty is everywhere!!! Very nice!!!

What a great find...so many beautiful hearts...I would have probably walked by that purse not seeing the bounty of embellishments. I'm going to have to rethink my thrift store shopping.
