Early today I walked to Degraves, a small tiny street in the city where coffee and pastry shops are plenty. In between are small boutiques selling clothes, shoes and accessories.
These animal brooches caught my eye

My mom collects them and I often borrow, this was a great opportunity to add more pieces to her collection.

Spiders, lady bugs, sea horses, octopus, swans, etc. It's a zoo of brooches! :)
