Christmas Gift Idea to Keep Philly Close to the Heart

On my annual day off from work, I decided to swing into the Big Green Earth Store to refill my laundry detergent for the apartment.  Loaded with gifts for the holiday season, I was perusing their awesome selection and came across this sweet necklace:

It’s made from a reused bottle cap… something I’m highly in favor of.

I snagged this one as a birthday present to myself, but what a better gift for your favorite green Philly girls over the holidays?!  They have different variations, all recycled and a beautiful piece of jewelry to keep Philly close to your heart.
