just a thought ( i have these occasionally !! )
it would be lovely to have our british butterflies celebrated as enamel badges or brooches...
rather like those golliwogs from the marmalade jars ( if you can remember that far back )
they would make marvellous presents & children could collect them to show which butterflies they have seen...

the RSPB (!) have done just that... you can exchange £1 for a nice Small Tortoiseshell or Red Admiral brooch. There is a box on my local's bar... but I've seen them all over.

Nothing to do with the RSPB pins, but this is one for the girls.
Or better still one for the guys to buy the girls!!

Hi Gwenhwyfar,
H Samuel the jewellers has a lovely range of butterfly jewellery in silver and gold. Prices are not too bad either, Ranging from about £10 - £50.

Thanks Denise, but I think my hinting has paid off now. Works every time!
