Great aunt flexing on seagoon :)

Decided to pull some of her beach combing stuff out and think about displaying it. She was a spinster, teacher and hit the beach every day in Warrnambool, very kind woman. I remember packing all of this away when she passed many moons ago as a kid.

Oh wow, this is a beautiful ( and valuable ) collection. The necklace looks like a real traditional rare First Australian necklace. It may be very old. They all deserve to be displayed. 😊

and thanks for showing it all to us. 😽
