    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Lela, You are in Cali, right? I believe you can get film for a Brownie at Freestyle Photographic Supply in Hollywood. I am pretty sure its 120 film, you just spool it onto the 620 spool in the camera. I may be wrong.

    I've piddled around with making my own. I know there is immense pleasure in making things yourself, most of my own flowers are just small buds hot glued to a hair pin. Do you have anyone to reccomend Kitty? Or even what type of fastener is best?
