Charmed Life

As a child I was fascinated by my aunt's charm bracelet.  It was a wonderful sterling silver chain crammed full of movable charms.  There are two, that even after many many years, still remain fresh in my mind.  One was a sewing machine with a wheel and treadle that moved and the other was a pair of scissors that opened.  On my 50th birthday my mother gave me her gold charm bracelet.  Although it doesn't have those memorable movable charms,  this bracelet had special meaning for my mother and now has a special place in my heart and my jewelry box.  The necklace above is my tribute to those two ladies and their 'charm'.
