Celebrating A Decade Of OSC!

Ten years ago, we set out on a journey to create more than just jewelry—we wanted to craft pieces that tell your stories, mark your milestones, and carry deep meaning. Today, as we celebrate Our Spare Change’s 10-year Golden Birthday, we are overwhelmed with gratitude.

Xoxo, 

Danielle + Hillary
