n“Many of these items were given to Mom with love. Others she chose because she loved them. By wearing them, I’m continuing that chain of love.”
n
nAfter her mother died, Feldman started cleaning, repairing, and resizing the jewelry pieces so that she could wear them. I know that it was meaningful for my daughters, sister, and niece to pore over my mother’s jewelry box, too – and it’s definitely not the monetary value of the jewelry that’s most important, but rather the sentimental value!
n
nBy the way, when looking at my own mother’s jewelry box, I also connected with my father, because he dearly loved to buy her jewelry that she liked. They both preferred turquoise and silver over diamonds and gold.

n
nIf you have family heirlooms collecting dust in the corners of your closet or locked away in safe deposit boxes, consider getting them out and using or wearing them!
