Pin board home bargains

Hey lovelies,  

please bear with me I'm attemoting to blog on my new tablet!

As you all know I love my brooches and I've been looking for a way to store and or display them. 

for a while I've been looking for a pin board or a shadow box. 

I've seen a few but none have been exactly what I wanted.

I saw this one in quality save and home bargain.  It was £2.99 I kept dismissing it as it was too girlie. 

After spending ages looking for one I liked better. I decided to go for it. I knew I'd be sticking brooch pins into it so didn't want to spend a lot if I'd be "ruining" the fabric

What do you think?
