Is the trendy jewelry hanging on hook after hook in your favorite chain stores starting to make you yawn? Me, too. And same goes for Jennifer Hall Pellitteri, half the couple who makes Jenny and Jimbob Outrageously Original Matchbox Necklaces. An actress in Los Angeles, CA, Jennifer was sick of seeing women strutting around Hollywood in the same ho-hum accessories day in and day out. So, she came up with quirky, unusual objects to dip in gold and slap on a chain so us gals could stuff our jewelry boxes with some uniqueness and good, ol’ fashioned fun. Good thing her partner Jimbob is a graduate of and former instructor for the Jewelry Arts and Design College in LA, and has literally thousands of hours of experience crafting jewelry by hand.

Let Jenny and Jimbob make your look interesting again. You’re bound to raise some eyebrows with a 24 karat gold gas pump hanging around your neck. The entire line of necklaces features objects you wouldn’t necessarily think of when you think of “charm,” but they’re charming nonetheless by making fun of what we’d normally deem ordinary, strange or plain undesirable. Plus, each necklace is packaged in its own little matchbox with a clever name splashed across it. And each piece is only $30–40, so you really can’t lose. I can’t wait to order my paper airplane!

Happy retailing,

Kathleen <3
