Here is a necklace I made out of the pressed pennies I previously blogged about. It can be worn long, or doubled up for a layered look. As I researched these pressed pennies more, I found this website dedicated to collectors. I, of course, was looking for a peacock penny and I believe there might be a peacock press as close as the Milwaukee Zoo for the next time I visit Wisconsin!!!

Penny for your thoughts.....

Cute! My kids collect these! This will be something for my daughter to do someday, when she wonders what to do with all of them! Thanks for the idea!
Great minds must be thinking alike! I think you are right...the peacock press must be at the Milwaukee Zoo! We got some from San Francisco last year and from the Titanic exhibition in Milwaukee this spring. I am working on a piece right now that features one of these pressed pennies! Stay tuned!
Enjoy the day!
