#40 in an ongoing series of posts celebrating the alphabet.
Love these necklaces created by collage illustrator Laura Tarrish of Bridgetown Papers in Portland, Oregon. The little bottle is filled with tiny custom letters cut from silver card stock.
Buyers can specify which words they’d like inside — names of loved ones, special places, even secret messages!
You can also include a gold icon (cut from metallic card stock) with your letters.
