From Trash to Treasure

Turning a collection of old coins into a bohemian-inspired bracelet!

I've been collecting old coins from travel and random places for as long as I can remember, and they've done me no good except take up space in a box in my basement. So today, since the gloomy Chicago weather didn't inspire me to leave the house, my dad and I decided to finally make something out of some of my treasures: this fab bracelet!
The coins are all connected with sterling silver and feature different political figures from around the world (Queen Elizabeth, Confucious, Balboa). In my opinion, it fits in perfectly with some of the bohemian fashion craze going around this summer! I cant wait to wear it tonight!

With love,
