I never in a million years would have thought I would be able to put this pin back in my collection. I had it a couple of years ago and had to sell it. I have always thought it was gone forever. I never even put much into trying to get it back b/c it just did not seem like something that would/could happen.

Well, about a week ago a woman who I have been buying pins from for years got in touch with me. I knew she had this pin as well as a couple of others that I had asked her about in the past but she was sure she would never part with those few. She has sold me some amazing pins over the years and I have loved them all. She is an amazing pin friend. :) So, she messages me last week and says she needs to tell me something that is going to hopefully make my day. She says she has decided to part with a pin she knows I would love to have. She teases me about the price for a couple of days before finally telling me how much she would sell it to me for. Now, it was more money than I had to be blowing on pins when I am trying to get this studio remodeled and set up (which is killing me) BUT there was no way I could say no to buying THIS pin for THAT price so I said yes in about 3 seconds. :lol:

I swear, part of me never thought it would arrive as I just thought there was no way I was getting this beauty back but today there was a lbe in the mail box and this is what I found inside...

I am on cloud 9!!! :):):)



...and now I need to go bump my sell thread to try and make this money back...lol SO worth it though!!
 
OMG beautiful pin! Definitely going in my wants with the rest of my impossible to get pins LOL

Congrats Amanda you have AMAZING pins!
 
Sooo happy for you Amanda!!! You deserve all this good karma you've been getting :) That is the epitome of a Grail and it will fit in great with your already beautiful collection.
 
Super congrats! This is one of my favorite pins ever...I also had to pay a pretty penny for it, but it was well worth it! I'm sure it will look wonderful in your already amazing collection. :)
 
I had a feeling it was this exact pin when I opened the thread. ;) Oh how wonderful and lucky! That is also my grail and I hope to get it some day soon. Congrats on getting the most beautiful pin ever made! (IMO) :)
 
Thank you guys SOOOOOO much for all the super sweet comments and congrats! I am so thrilled over this pin. It is one of my all time favorite pins and I feel so so happy to have it again. I seriously never thought it would happen. It is crazy how you almost give up on something and then it is just put right in front of you. She has a beautiful spot on my Princess board. :)

I hope that everyone else looking for her will be soon be able to acquire it as well!
