Is this technically re-gifting?
I took a pair of my grandmother's beads ( she passed away a few years ago ) and restrung them with some more beads and a cameo pin to make a new pendant for my mother for christmas. Is this a bad thing to do? If not, should I pair something else with it? Like a poem or a framed picture of my grandmother? Thanks in advance!
Re-gifting means to pass along something that you had no use for. (Like a sweater you didn't like).
You have, instead, updated a family heirloom, to make it usable. In the original form, the beads were just sitting in the jewelry box, NOW, you have made it possible for your mom to WEAR and SHARE her memories.
What a fantastic idea! If you have a photo of your grandmother wearing the original piece of jewelry, that would be perfect -- but any photo of her (or of them, or of you all three together) would make this even more special.
A family member of mine took apart a pearl necklace she had inherited, and put a few beads on a strand for each of her daughters. The daughters were so pleased to be able to share the memory of their grandmother. And, each had thought the original strand was too old-lady and valuable to 'just wear' -- so they found the smaller necklaces perfect.
