In the piece I wrote for Vanishing New York, I mentioned how I used to make necklaces out of the now-obsolete penultimate NYC subway tokens. My friend Abi (@abigailjewelry) is actually using the last subway tokens to make earrings. Metrocards don’t make for great jewelry. However, they do work well as toothpicks.
