as seen on stamps, on coins in my purse, craft items and even on artwork
* a much younger Queen - letterpress stamp from PostalHeritage UK
* Queen pendant from Arete on Etsy
Royal Mail stamps from an online stamp club, Kiloware Stamps
and great artwork from Ann Carington - this queen portrait was made entirely of safety pins - as seen in Serena Rees & Joe Corre's (owners of Agent Provocateur) London town house featured in USA Vogue

The framed one penny on the wall in the last picture is wonderful (amazing artwork from Ann Carrington)!
ReplyDeleteLook at all those stamps! I love them! Such wonderful colours, aren't they! And SAFETY PINS.. obviously good for things other than holding up knickers!
