I recently lost my Mom. While I was going through a box of her things I came across my Cabbage Patch doll! I remember receiving it for Christmas when I was around 4 years old. I thought it was lost.
24 March 2012, 10:18
Love that necklace. It would make a lovely gift for my granddaughter. A treasure I found……well, I didn’t actually lose and then find her but she has moved back here to live with me and she is a treasure.
24 March 2012, 10:30
I can’t think of a treasure I’ve found recently :( I did lose a very expensive law book & then find it again, so that was a treasure, though it would’ve been more of one to never lose it in the first place. I think I need that necklace! :)
24 March 2012, 10:39
The other day I found the perfect spring jacket in a very unexpected store, it was hanging on a rack outside when I walked past.. It’s the perfect color and thickness and style and just like I’ve been wanting for a few years :D
24 March 2012, 10:45
The last treasure I found was a ‘lost forever’ car key, which turned out to be in the pocket of my winter coat, which had been stored in the loft for 6 months!
24 March 2012, 10:59

24 March 2012, 12:27
That necklace is adorable, and I would wear it proudly! My last treasure is a picture of my dad holding me as a newborn. Since I have very few pictures of my childhood, finding this picture is a wonderful treasure.

24 March 2012, 13:41
A treasure I found this week was a small piece of Christmas tinsel. My mom died 3 1/2 years ago and we believe that every time we find a piece of tinsel it means that Mom is sending a message. We have found tinsel in odd places at odd times of the year and always when we needed it most.
24 March 2012, 13:44

24 March 2012, 15:48
My heart did a little skip when I saw this one – I simply HAVE to put my name in the hat. And the last treasure I found…oh gosh. hm….I love going to the thrift store and last week scored me a $3 Easter skirt for my daughter. I might have done a little skip! _
24 March 2012, 16:12
The last treasure I found was a little love note (in his own handwriting) from my son. He gave it to me when he was six. With moving from another state I thought I’d lost it!! Now I can scrap it and cherish it forever!

Most recent treasure that I’ve found? Well, I happen to be digging through my children’s old school papers and found several from both that are so sweet…about how much they love us and how “great” we are…just too sweet! I currently have a tween and a teen..nice to be reminded that at one time, they liked being around us (and I know someday that will come back again)! :) Thanks for the chance!

Three little magnetic toys that belong to my 2 year old nephew, that are part of a set, had been missing for weeks. I opened the draw of my filing cabinet and there were two of them, wedged up into the handle. I can only wonder where he put the third one?
24 March 2012, 23:09
What a gorgeous necklace. The last treasure I found were all sorts of old photos & bits and pieces when I cleared out my 99 year old aunts home after she died. There wasn’t a lot but that made everything all the more treasured

I found a professional photo of my son, daughter, niece and nephews. It was taken about seven years ago and I put it away ‘safely’. Too safe as I couldn’t find it for ages and I wanted to scrap it alongside one taken last year by the same photographer.
Thanks for the chance to win that necklace. It is utterly gorgeous.
25 March 2012, 04:40
The last treasure I found was while looking through my scrapbooks for a photo of our house when I realized how many memories I have chronicled. It was like opening a long lost treasure chest to find so many memories tucked away. I love the necklace – thank you for sharing!
25 March 2012, 04:40
My last treasure I found was a t-shirt, that I was lost for almost 3 years :D.

26 March 2012, 08:51
We found 2 treasures. We had 4 finches and over the weekend came home to find 2 more and never realized we had babies in the hutch. What a blessing. This necklace would be perfect to celebrate new babies.
26 March 2012, 10:24
In our tiny little neighborhood we are surrounded by horses. Although I have never wanted a horse, I enjoy watching them. Imagine my surprise last week when I was admiring my neighbors’ herd and noticed something on the ground. It was a baby! One of the horses had been pregnant. Watching this little one and its mother is a great joy!
26 March 2012, 12:02
my last treasure I found was my beautiful kitty, Lily. She actually found me at the cat shelter…..my first kitty in 20 years cuz my son was allergic.

26 March 2012, 12:08
‘Rediscovered’ some photos of my mother when she was young while cleaning out some boxes of ‘junk’ this week. Treasure.
What an adorable necklace! I love the thread thru design…off to check out her website!
26 March 2012, 13:03
For me…treasures are often in the form of rusty bits I use for my art! I recently found a rusty spring that I just loved! It has become part of an art doll I made over the weekend!
26 March 2012, 15:50
My rediscovered treasure is my lovely garden. It never fails to surprise me how beautiful the garden is when it blossoms in the sun after the winter months.
26 March 2012, 16:02
This is the cutest necklace ever!! need one now! Thanks Shimelle!!
26 March 2012, 16:21

26 March 2012, 19:19
Just noticed that I totally neglected telling you my latest treasure! The treasure I found today was just spending time with the Boy! We had a picnic in the woods and enjoyed the first moments of spring!
26 March 2012, 23:20
My last treasure was something I didn’t know I had…in my box of old French candy molds given to me by my French grandfather was a handwritten note tellng me how to make the little chocolate flower pots…I just stared at it and started to remember…back in the 1960’s, my grandfather poured the chocolate into the molds and my grandmother snapped on the lids…then she poked a few green florist wires through a hole in the top. Once unmolded she would make a tiny hole in a jelly bean and push it on the wire…viola…a jelly bean tree.
27 March 2012, 10:37
The last treasure I found was my Kindle charger… I love technology, but not when my book runs out of battery power!
27 March 2012, 15:26
Hi Shimelle!
I discovered that I won the true scrap class pass on saturday (I still can’t believe it!).
I sent you an e-mail but got no answer.
Did you get it?
thanks in advance for your answer
27 March 2012, 15:49
This is the most beautiful necklace!
The last treasure I found was a €20 note in an old handbag, just a couple of days ago!
27 March 2012, 16:28
Ooo that’s me, thank you Shimelle!
I served a customer yesterday at work wearing that exact necklace, I even said how nice it is and she told me she got it on Etsy, how weird is that?
The last treasure I found was some jewellery I thought I’d lost that I’ve had forever. I found it right at the back of the closet.

My found “treasure” for today is definitely my chin. Re-found it the hard way this week when I had an accident and was brought to ER with an ambulance. the doctors told me I had a good guardian angel since my jaw was still in one piece and I didn´t suffer a skull-brain-trauma. a few stitches and a swollen face against that is really no big deal, is it?
Love the neclace!
28 March 2012, 11:38
The last treasure I found was a missing pair of reading glasses. When you’re a reader like me, finding them was a great thing!:)
28 March 2012, 16:34
two things spring to mind – one was the confidence in myself that i had lost quite a long time ago and a very close and dear friend helped me regain – the other is a picture of my two children that I thought i had lost and shows me holding my second with my first leaning over and gently kissing her newborn sister tenderly on the forehead. Both of these are priceless to me. Love and Light all xx
