Coin Jewelry can be divided into two major categories: whole coins and cut coins. This article will seek to give the origin of and details about both types.
Whole coin jewelry has most likely been around since coins were first invented. It is thought that Egyptians would decorate their soldiers with medals similar to coins of their day. And, as long as soldiers and civilians have been traveling, the coins of other nations have been a great souvenir to take back home.
Travelers would have coins finished whole or with added engravings to be used as necklaces and rings. Read more...

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, our family found, holiday gifts for coworkers
, itself in an odd situation. My husband had recently been promoted within his company, which resulted in our moving to a new city.

They’re coming — the Holidays — How are you going to handle the gorgeous, fattening foods that inevitably accompany every party, gathering or event?
Food is a big and wonderful part of the holiday tradition…. From Thanksgiving to New Years, we stuff our faces with Aunt Linda’s famous pumpkin pie to Grandma’s N.Y. style cheese cake. (Actually, it all starts with Junior’s Halloween candy.)
