When I thought that brooches would make a good gift for the moms, I had NO clue how much they would cost. I started my search on Ebay. There are always cheap things there, right? Wrong. I couldn’t find a brooch under $10 that was remotely pretty. Did I pick the wrong gift?
Then, I happened upon the fabulous knottie 99vintageglam, who suggested Pugster.com for brooches. WOW! I bought 7 brooches for $50 (including shipping). Yeah, super cheap AND super pretty.
Check ’em. I got these two for the moms, they are simple and beautiful!
I got some for the bridesmaids, thinking we could pin the sashes like this, but then we switched dresses (more on that later), so I’ll be returning them.
But look at this purple one, it’s to die for!
Thank you so much for this find! I’ve been looking EVERYWHERE for inexpensive brooches!
I collect vintage broaches that I find at garage sales and flea markets. It doesn’t sound very glamorous, I know, but some people have no idea what they’re getting rid of for super-cheap prices. Just a thought for those of you who have a little time on your hands to go on a treasure hunt!
very pretty. can you tell us how was the service and how long it to took to ship?
Wow, I always appreciate a great bargain tip! And you’re right, the purple one is to die for. 
i’m wondering about your bmaids dress situation since i’m considering changing mine…hmmm, decisions, decisions
@Leticia: It took about 4 days to arrive, and the service was great. As I said, I’m returning some of them, so I contacted them via email, and they are mailing me return envelopes.
nice find! i was looking awhile for some too and finally gave up, where were you earlier in my life girl?!
Thanks for sharing. I’ve been looking all over for brooches for my silk box invites. These are reasonably priced and so pretty!
Thanks for sharing. I was just searching all over Ebay this weekend for brooches.
I love brooches! Thank you for sharing this info with us!
