Lay on the
Charms
One special pendant hints at a chapter
of your story; several layered together
tell the whole fascinating thing. Simply
slip pendants and vintage charms onto
chains of varying lengths (see below).
You can use necklaces you already own,
or find pieces at sites like chaingallery.
com. Compose a lyrical look that name-
checks things with personal meaning:
family members’ initials, souvenirs like
an Egyptian pyramid, or an ode to your
favorite hobby. Many cost under $30, so
go ahead: Express yourself to the fullest.
