Later these pins were made with forged metal. I saw some in a book about ancient jewelry, which is what gave me the idea for making these pins.<br />Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06700778413231259614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28049265.post-38612513537106260942013-06-03T11:00:41.006-07:002013-06-03T11:00:41.006-07:00I wonder a little if having too many choices might...I wonder a little if having too many choices might be a bit of a problem.

Must be in my mind our SF bag assessment charges when shopping for goods if one has not brought their own carrier.<br />And then I needed to read up what in the world was a fibula pin. Now, I know: fibula, ( Latin: “brooch”) outer of two bones of the lower leg or hind limb, probably so named because the inner bone, the tibia, and the fibula together resemble an ancient brooch, or pin.<br />The penguin-inspired pin's a delight!
