Class Act

So awesome - at Wise Buys thrift store in Bellingham, they were selling recycled jewelry handmade by local high school students.  Each piece had tag of the student's name on it; how great a teaching opportunity, to give them that sense of pride in creating a product!  Some of these look very JCrew inspired and most people would never guess they were made from pieces of old broken jewelry.  I almost bought one of the thin chained, single-pendant clear rhinestone necklaces on the chalkboard.
