Celebrate a Golden Birthday!

Our hand stamped Gold Filled Mark Your Calendar® Necklace
makes a perfect gift for a Golden Birthday.

I have to admit that I didn't know what a Golden Birthday was until a few years ago. Golden Anniversary, sure. But Golden Birthday? That was a new one.

Just in case you haven't heard about it, your Golden Birthday is the birthday where you turn the same age as the day your were born. For example, turning 24 on the 24th.

I've since discovered that it can also be called your Grand Birthday, Champagne Birthday, Star Birthday or Lucky Birthday.

Since my birthday is on the 17th, and I'm long past that age, I think I'll just make every birthday my Champagne Birthday. Reasonable, don't you think?
