Repurposing: Old Irish notes made into charms for my daughter

[biker chick]

I would like to show some JT-ers who were interested in how an old Irish note was transformed into a charm for my daughters charm bracelet, photos dont do it justice.....& im still looking for some old notes as ive only been given one so far from a very kind JT fingers crossed thank you

Wow.... Those are amazing! I'd love to do that myself!! Are they waterproof? And how did you fit the whole note in ?? Thank you.. Lucky daughter :)

[biker chick]

Yes they are waterproof & it was a gifted silversmith who does my charms as the gold ones are very very expensive to do

Hi, I'm moving at the moment and low and behold I find my old jeans (that were also a size 8 I might add) and what is in the pocket but an old 10 pound note (yes that i the last time I was a size 8). It is the one with James Joyce on it.If that is the type of note you are looking for or are you looking for very old ones? I would be happy to send it.
Regards,
Mel.

The Central Bank on Dame St. in Dublin will cash in old Irish notes & coins, I got €35 recently for some old money, mind you that didn't last nearly as long! I had a load of £1 coins from my time spent in flatland for feeding the electricity meter, do they still exist? Love the charm bracelet, fabulous keepsake for your daughter, I kept a coin of each denomination from the year my daughter was born. Mind you when she gets older she'll probably come looking for the notes aswell! :)
