Jewelry must be the most popular present given after gift cards and money. It’s a small or lavish token that will forever tell a story. For some it tells a cute story of besties exchanging charms, for others it’s an eternal token of love – but the stories some pieces tell are powerful. I once read an article where the woman said she would only take gifts of jewelry because in a dire emergency she could sell it. Even growing up, when many displaced refugees were enrolled in my school, I remember the recounted stories of the items they brought and why. Jewelry and priceless heirlooms were always on the top of the list to ensure some capital, when they arrived their to their next destination.
So, this season, if you’re still struggling to find that perfect gift, just get them something shiny. One day, 10 days from now or 10 years from now, they too will have will have a story to tell.
