Have you ever…

Spent the day in wait for the postie? Hearing their bell as they stop at your gate, and tripping over the dog because you’re in such a hurry to get there. Just in case they’re delivering a brooch?

Grabbed your favourite brooch to wear and found it broken? Where the clasp has fallen off? Or you’ve dropped it on the floor and a corner snaps off? Or you’ve found it in pieces in the bottom of the washing machine? (Yet again.)

Laid in bed, unable to sleep because you regret not grabbing a brooch from the new release that day? And reminding yourself that you had already bought four new brooches this week doesn’t take the pain away.

Felt devastated when you missed out on a new release? Even though you arrived early and had your credit card in your hot little hands?

Spent the day in anticipation because one of your favourite makers has a new release coming out? Because you can’t wait to see which brooch (or brooches) you’ll be lucky enough to get?

Felt overwhelmed by how many brooches are on your ‘most wanted’ list? When there isn’t enough money in the world to buy all the brooches that you need (not want).

If that’s you, then you’re in the right place!

Because Brooch With Me was created for people like you (and me).

People who love to collect acrylic brooches!

And I love brooches.

You could even go so far as to say that I’m a little obsessed with brooches.

So obsessed that I geek out on watching new releases and guessing which brooches sell out first and how fast! And I’ve gotten pretty accurate with my predictions!

And what started with one brooch in 2017 has grown to a collection that is bigger and better than I ever imagined it could be. A collection that is growing in volume, value and collectability.

I have even managed to buy, sell and swap my way to all eight Diego’s from Deer Arrow. Yes, I managed to negotiate my way to own one of the rare Pink Diego dragon brooches by Deer Arrow.

All with a tiny budget!

And Brooch With Me was created to help broochies to build the collection of their dreams!
