I have a small collection of Christmas brooches. They are not old, old. They are somewhat old, cuz I is too! In the midwest, we always wore a brooch on our coats. AZ...not so much. But I treasure each one.
Anyone who knows me, knows this is soooo true! I love to Give, and I love to get!
This is my oldest pin. My hubby gave it to me one of our first Christmas's.
The tree is another older pin....and everyone needs a Santa!
I got this at Macy's years ago....I loved the flying reindeer.
Simple but so pretty!
People used to scowl at me in Michigan when I wore this....but I LOVE snow...at least for Christmas!
This is a later pin. This is probably one of those, that you pick up for a gift and then decide, no, I gotta keep it!
I don't know where the string came from in the pic, but I was too lazy to do over! I have worn this poinsetta so many times.....It has matching earrings.
This is a new one from my hubby this year!
My snowmen pins....that I can wear into January!
This was a gift from a church friend years ago. She knew I collected Nativities.
But this one, Oh, how I LOVE this one. I wear it every year on Christmas Eve and Day.
Hmm, I feel like a Christmas pin shopping trip in the future! Half-price maybe??

I have several brooches that belonged to my mother and to my grandmother ~~ I wear them often, no matter the occasion.
Happy Holidays!!
I just pinned my poinsettia pin on my red winter coat. I read something Susan Branch wrote about dressing up for Christmas shopping and took it to heart. You really do have a nice collection of Christmas pins!
What a beautiful collection of Christmas pins you have. I have several but never seem to have enough December to wear them all.

CeekAY , your pins are so pretty. I collect a lot of Christmas pins from yard sales. I use most of them in crafts.
Ceekay, I love your pins. I was digging around to find one myself today. I only have about 3. I love them on lapels and scarves. Blessings, xoxo,Susie
What a nice collection of Christmas pins! I need to get mine all together too.
Merry Christmas!

Christmas blessings to you Ceekay,
I love seeing your brooch collection-they are all so wonderful! You have given me an idea for a post-so thank you. When my sister was alive, we always used to get matching pins with my sil too.
I always wore them on coats as well, but haven't pulled them out this year. Thanks for the encouragement. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas.
Hugs, Noreen
Beautiful pins!!! So funny that I just remembered today to take out all of my Christmas pins, and then you post all about them! I have them all out now, and ready to wear starting tomorrow!!!
Ceekay, I too, have a great collection of Christmas jewelry, in fact I wear a different piece each day in December! I also have collected nativities for over 20 years. We do keep finding more in common, even AZ :) Have a blessed night! Cindy
Love your collection and what they mean to you!
Merry Christmas.
warmly,

Beautiful! I have a snowflake and a Christmas Tree that belonged to my Grandma Mary. Been wearing them for weeks! :)
What pretty holiday pins. I have one like your lit candle. And I got my little box of pins out one day to put a pin on my doll's scarf! Holiday hugs to you, Diane
I have several Christmas brooches too, and have them pinned to some of my jackets. You have a sweet collection.
My mother in law has moved in with us and I just put a wreath brooch on her red jacket!
I think I like the last one the best too. I would totally wear that Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. :)

P.S. I still wear broaches on my jackets. :)
