So here's a unique idea. It's a sterling silver bread tag, but it can be personalized with the words or dates of your choosing. That's a really interesting idea for a birthday or aniversary. Or an interesting way to comemorate any special memory, since it's subtle enough only you would know what it was. I'd totally want one. No one else would have one, and it's pretty cool and funky. You could even layer it with other charms.

Or if you'd rather feel like a loaf of bread, go for this one. Clever!

Sterling silver, this tag comes custom made with the words and/or date you want.

Hmmm. I like this transformation of the everyday, familiar into precious objects. And the best part about it is that you can have your birthday or any other significant word or number stamped onto it. A unique and custom piece for only $40. (via Supermarket)

I own this, it's adorable and comes with your own message/birthdate punched onto the front.

These totally cracked me up because my 96 year old grandmother always keeps these little plastic tabs that you use to secure bread packaging and I always ask her 'why'?

Melanie Favreau has taken them , stamped them with expiration dates, cast them in sterling silver and turned them into jewelry.

what fun!
