The Swap is a place online that I call home. It is a wonderful group of christian homeschoolers whom I call friends.
Anyways..... I could go on and on, but I better save that for a later post, because today Amy, suggested we have a Swappie theme blogging day........ and today the theme is Charm bracelet. But I have to hurry, because there is only 40 minutes left of today.
So here you go!!
I actually can't believe I found my jewelry box. I don't remember when I got it, but I think maybe I was in junior high.
I also don't remember when I got my charm bracelet, but I know that there is a bear charm from Yellowstone park, a whale from SeaWorld in CA and Tinkerbell from Disneyland. These were all from a vacation that we took when I was in 2nd grade. Then there are several from my trip to France, which was when I was a senior in high school...... including an Eiffel Tower!! Quite a gap between those two vacations, huh? There is also a Huck Finn charm from St. Louis, MO that I got when I was there playing (my accordian) in a music contest.
Be sure and check out the other Swappie Charm bracelets

I used to have a jewelry box like that, Laurie. I don't know what ever became of it. Maybe if I ever run across it, it will have my charm bracelet in it! ;-)
You have some neat charms, but do you always work against a deadline? Just kidding! ;-Þ
I have a jewelry box like yours, too! How funny!!
One GREAT thing about Laurie, she always comes through. :oD
Cool bracelet Laurie. I think yours is the only one which is gold toned instead of silver. I like your old jewelry box too. Yes, I had one too, and it even had a little ballerina which spun around to a tune which you could begin by winding it up.
I didn't know you played the accordian? DollyM on the swap also played one, and my fil played quite well.
Thanks for sharing your memories with us.
What neat charms! Memories are so much fun. Thanks for posting about it.
Oh my gosh! My mom has that SAME box! She uses it as a sewing box! Crazy! LoL
I like both of your bracelets! I think your charms are interesting. Your dangle bead turned out cute. I have the stuff in my stash, but I haven't gotten around to it.
