inedible fruit - or how Iris Apfel knocked off a Hanna Bernhard toucan pin

{dt. Apfel = engl. apple}

UPDATE: Judy just updated her blog: HSN apologized and removed the pin!


I´m sure you all have already heard about Iris Apfel knocking off of a piece of Hanna Bernhard jewelry on  Sea of Shoes and Atlantis Home yesterday.  I feel so happy for Nathalie from Hanna Bernhard that she has such amazing friends like Jane and Judy who can spread the word about it to their tremendous readers so I was first not sure if there is any need to do also a post about it but with all my heart I had the wish to support Nathalie with a post. 
Nathalie is doing the jewelries with so much passion, every piece is one of a kind and she was always proud that Iris was one of her customers. I was so speechless when I received Nathalie´s email about Iris Apfel´s announcement of her jewelry line for HSN and seeing an exact copy of the toucan Iris Apfel once received from Hanna Bernhard.
