A brooch pinboard

I've been meaning to make one of these for ages! The idea was from the excellent A Thrifty Mrs who had put a fantastic tutorial together. It's very easy and I made a similar thing last year when I put together this tutorial on how to prettify a pin board (which I still love!)



I had picked up this frame without any glass at a carboot for 50p. The fabric I've had for ages and it used to be a table cloth!



I've got so many lovely brooches that I hardly ever wear I thought it was about time I started showing them off!

Bottom left - beautiful crocheted brooch made by my Stepmum
Middle - silver tiger - this is my all time favourite and from H&M!
