From jewelry to house décor, you will love them without a doubt! Here are some fantastic ideas for repurposing old pennies!
Penny Ring
Transform your pennies into fabulous accessories! This penny ring we found at TiB is absolutely gorgeous, but what really makes it outstanding is its total uniqueness.

Penny “Eat” Sign
With pennies, you really have a multitude of possibilities. They can be incorporated into almost anything, for example a nifty sign for your kitchen. Round up, foodies! This is the sign you have always wanted! You can see the whole project at Crafted Sparrow and be amazed by its simplicity!
Penny Photo Frame
Money can’t buy you love, but it can make you a frame for photographs that capture the moments you shared with your loved ones! It’s a nice sentiment to always remember that the most valuable things in life really cannot be bought! Peek at Oh So Lovely for a tutorial!
Penny Coasters

Penny Mirror
A wonderful decoration idea, especially if you have a mirror you’re not particularly fond of. Dress it up in pennies and watch as the copper transforms your mirror into a total piece of art!
