The Carole Tanenbaum Vintage Collection pins are HERE! Carole Tanenbaum has outdone herself, offering a plentiful selection of gorgeous 60s era, Mrs. O-inspired flower pins, perfect for the Spring season and just for us! And best yet, the pins are affordably priced at $35 for one, or $90 for a trio.

A short note (with purchasing details) direct from Carole Tanenbaum:

"Well, spring has sprung! As promised I have assembled some more 60s metal flower brooches, symbolizing optimism, freedom and love. Exclusively for Mrs O blog readership, enjoy this super selection.

Remember, these went quickly last go around. Please note that you will be sent a confirmation email once your order goes through, we have a first come first served policy. If you do not receive a confirmation email, your credit card will not be charged."

What a treat!

I've always wanted to experiment with pins as accessories, these were gorgeous enough to get me to try! I got my order placed and can't wait for their arrival

I'm going to treat myself and buy one of these pins.

YAY! I missed out last time, but remembered to check early today. I am soon to be a proud owner of a Royal We, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks to Mrs. T and Carole!

Unfortunately, the cost to ship adds an additional $15! Reconsidering buying based on that!

Oh my. These are the pins I wore in high school, the bright spots on the mostly uninspiring and plain outfits I made for myself then. Plain--but well-sewn! ha I grew up in a small, rural town in southern California. This makes me wonder if Mother still has that long ago jewelry box. This makes me wonder if I am now vintage, too. Better vintage than old, don't you think?

I love the new collection regardless, and I particularly love the introduction to Carole Tanenbaum herself. I'd not known of her before I became a follower of this website. Thank you, Mrs. T!

These are truly beautiful pins...ladies, it's spring time, the President's health care reform package passed last night, Mrs O is ramping up her campaign to fight childhood obesity, why not treat yourself to something special...plus these prices, including shipping, are a deal...remember, their vintage pieces. Celebrate, and honor Mrs O's fashion sense!

I agree, $50.00 is a little bit much or I would certainly get one, I have lots of brown and yellow in my wardrobe this spring

Hi Mrs O Lovers!

CTVC here. We've had an overwhelming response : over 54 sales so far and counting!

I see some people are concerned with the shipping costs. It is 15 dollars because it is shipped with tracking and insured up to 100 dollars, to ensure the safety of your purchase's transport. We value our clients too much to mail their one of a kind vintage pieces without any reassurance!

Have fun with the flower pins and welcome in this lovely spring!

Warm Regards,

CTVC Team

Powder Puff is my favourite. Unusual, detailed and realistic and the earings add that final touch. I'll make a note of this one for sure.

So excited to see all the pins. Could not decide whiich to buy but finally decided on cotton candy. Spent all day thinking of what clothes I could wear with my new pins only to get an e-mail saying Cotton Candy has just sold before you. I guess it was not meant to be.

Just curious to know what ethnic background Jasmin Shokrian is from ?

All the pins are nearly sold out! Fantastic for Carole, a bummer for me!
