Wedding jewellery is one of the big investments in the wedding which also seems like a necessary evil. One of the reasons for this is, most of them are heavy pieces and not fit to be worn except at important events. For all those who have heavy Indian jewellery lying in their safes, here are a few tips to recycle wedding jewellery and wear them again and again.

A heavy choker which was a part of one's wedding jewellery can also be worn in other ways. One can wrap it around their wrist and attach it together. This will make it look like a chunky bangle. It can be worn with any western gown too along with ethnic wears making it look like a statement piece.
