... how about giving your favorite girl a license plate necklace?
No, this isn't identification around the neck, it's a recycled piece of an old license plate. You may not know where it's been or what car it was on, but the wearer can always let her imagination cruise off to wherever she pleases.
For $19.99 and up, the old license plate jewelry might not seem like a bargain. And it's certainly not something you don't see every day. But what a charming way to save the earth in a trivial way.

A wonderful keepsake gift for anyone who likes unpredictable jewelry with a bit of an edge. Handmade in Georgia. Your choice of letter.
