You should get a velvet lined shadow box to display them on the wall, or a small shadow box accent table to display them in. That way you can see them to enjoy them.

OMG! Those are gorgeous! I went to RM Waxworks on Etsy, and she has a note up thanking Crystal at Bag-O-Day for featuring her hooks, but she got so many orders that first day, she was forced to take a break from orders for a few days! Lol Crystal! You’re an ANIMAL! 🤣🤣🤣 Now that I’m seeing you open these, I see why! They are so cool! My daughter is turning 40 in a few weeks, and I think I now know what I can get her! I can’t wait to see her face! She’s crocheted/knitted for 22-23 years and this will be right up her alley! Thank you Crystal for sharing these. 🥰

This is such a wild coincidence! About a month ago, rmwaxworks came up on my Etsy feed and I bought a size H hook with the daffodil handle. I have crocheted with it and I fell in love! When they are restocked and I have saved a few more pennies, I will be purchasing more hooks from this shop. Thanks for a great video Crystal.

Oh wow! Those hooks are absolutely stunning! What a brilliant & cool idea! Yes, it was a "J" & that makes it even more special! Like you, I was imagining who owned them originally & how many generations did it go through of that family before they were sold to the creator of the hooks! I checked out the store, but they don't ship to Aussies. Probably just as well or I'd absolutely have bought one!! 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨

Anyways thank you again for sharing, I really enjoyed watching you open those nicely wrapped hooks. Hugs

What a creative and unique idea! I love the concept of giving beautiful items that may otherwise be left in a box, or saved only for special occasions, a new life and purpose. So clever, and equally worthy of being handed down as family heirlooms 🥰 Although, they are definitely much older than from the 1950s, if they're 120+ years old 🤔 Are you not even a tiny bit tempted to give them a test drive, just to see how they feel? 🤗 What a great find! A perfect addition to your collection.

I was devastated when it broke. 😭 I've never been able to find another, but I know they're out there. I believe the monogram on that one hook is a "J".
