Thrifted and refashioned items

This week we are off from school, so I will thrift 'till I drop. Here are 2 pairs of shoes I thrifted yesterday. I also worked on some vintage pins a bought from ebay a few weeks ago. Today I'll be refashionning some old clothes I'll post it later.
I made this pin yesterday from some little leftovers I had.
An these 2 bird pins are from eBay, I won them a few weeks ago, they need repair but I love them, it was a lot of 7 pins, so you'll be seeing a lot of them and yes I love the fact that they look worn out, that's what makes them special. The lady who sold them had them for 30 years.
I won them for $2.00 plus shipping. This one I repaired last night, 'm not jewelry maker by all means, but I liked how it came out.

The bird was missing it's little eye and a stone was missing at the bottom, I had this cute earring so I took out the back part and hot glued it to my bird. This is how it looks now.
I wish I knew how to make jewelry. =)
