Hold off any nostalgia, because I’m here to bring back the holiday cheer! For the past 6 years I’ve been collecting winter-themed vintage brooches and a couple of pairs of earrings as well; I have around 30 brooches (all from the USA) – most of them depict the Christmas celebrations, though are secular in what they represent: sleighs, snowmen, trees, holly, Santa Claus, gifts, candy canes, wreaths. Only a handful of them touch the religious aspect of the holiday: angels, candles, bells.
