Although we spend plenty of time getting our hands dirty in the garden, we still know how to clean up and look fabulous for a night on the town.  When you can’t show off your garden, show off your love for gardening with garden jewelry accessories. Certain jewelry items that speak to your passion make an interesting conversation piece, a fun way to accessorize any outfit or an excellent gift idea.

Here are a few favorite garden jewelry items I found around the web:

• Handmade miniature garden tool charms from Luna Parc are available as earrings or charms for a necklace or charm bracelet. Garden tools, including pitchforks, spades, watering cans, rakes and wheelbarrows, are available in cast sterling silver or bronze. Many of the charms even have tiny moving parts!
• Be a little eccentric with colorful, jeweled brooches and pins from Garden Party Collection. The collection features vintage and collectible flowers in a variety of shapes, sizes and gemstones.
• Ladybugs are a symbol of good luck in and out of the garden. Teresa Marie Jewelery offers a selection of ladybug and daisy earrings and charms.
• Etsy.com offers affordable, handmade jewelry designs from artists around the world. The “peas in a pod” necklaces are incredibly cute!

Wearing garden jewelry is a fun, funky way to bring your backyard hobby out in public with you. If you’re stumped about what to get a fellow gardener for Christmas, garden-themed jewelry is a clever and thoughtful surprise!
