I love Christmas Tree Pins - and other rhinestone pins.

Thanks for sharing this!

I love them, but would never wear them...they are, however, of great sentimental value to me, as most that I have were Mom's, many that I gave her, that my sister gave her, etc...Only a few of them are Christmas trees - there are all sorts of designs and colors.

I saved them for a long while until I decided a few years ago that I wanted to put them all on a Christmas stocking. So I got a thick purple plush Christmas stocking, and now it is almost completely covered with rhinestone pins. It is too heavy to hang - I display it under the tree, propped up by gifts. Included on it is the Christmas holly pin with bells that I used to wear on my plaid raincoat in third grade!

I would never part with this stocking!
