Way back in 2017 I made a crazy quilt bag and added to it this lizard bling brooch that I used to wear when I was young and crazy. I ended up giving away the bag as a work sample, but I ended up regretting it because I loved that brooch.
Ever since then I've been looking for another. Since it was mass-produced, inexpensive costume jewelry (I couldn't afford anything else when I was a youngster) I thought I'd have a slim shot at finding it or something very similar, so for five years I've been doing random searches for lizard brooches and looking.
Guess what.
I found the exact same brooch.
It's the same. Really. Even the little eyes are black glass, just like the original.
Not giving away this one!

Yay for you!! I have something I've been searching for for a long time too. I'll probably never find it, but you are a great example of 'never give up.'
You and I are so alike. I too had a little lizard broach that I loved. Mine was pewter and similar in shape to the green anoles we have in Texas. Wish I knew where it was. :o)
