During my decluttering binge, I rediscovered some pendent necklaces I haven’t been wearing and my old charm bracelet.
Many of my old necklaces were gifts and have special meaning. I know I don’t need a necklace made from one of my grandfather’s tuxedo buttons to remember him but I don’t want to get rid of it either.
I want to wear the necklaces more often and I always wished my charm bracelet were as a full of charms as my mom’s. That’s when I realized I had the answer in front of me.
The subway token isn't a charm. I bought it off eBay to symbolize my first trip to New York because my Metrocard was too big to wear.
I bought some split jump rings and added the pendants from the necklaces to my charm bracelet. Now I can wear all of my happy memories more often and at the same time!
I know wearing an old school charm bracelet is a little bit retro but sometimes so am I.
