This jewelry group features coins from around the world that are no longer in circulation. Artisans hand knot the necklace and bracelet cords with a durable waxy thread, and the earrings come with a card to explain the coins’ country and year of issue. Wear as a happy reminder of adventures-past or adventures-to-come!

* Word of the day: zamac (or zamak) is an alloy of zinc, aluminum, magnesium, and copper.

DIY Safety Pin Necklace
We thought this was super cute! Found it on Pinterest…of course. Seems like the easiest way would be to sketch a pattern first and then try to mimic it as you bead. Neutrals with a pop of a bold/vibrant color is the trend right now for spring/summer. If you attempt this let us know how it turns out!
