Creative Good Luck Charm Gift Ideas


If you look around the internet, you’ll find good luck charms everywhere. You can find rabbits’ feet, acorns, cinnamon sticks, raccoon penis bones (really), pendants for bracelets and other jewelry, horseshoes and more. The gift ideas are endless. Now that the world is getting smaller, people in the West are even buying mini-statues of Ganesha, the elephant-headed obstacle remover god of Hindu lore.

The above ideas are all easy internet searches, and of course, we have you covered with the pendants and some other jewelry items. After all, we’re called Pendant Nation.

Here are some gift ideas for you.

Booze

Normally, alcohol is bad luck for those who imbibe too often. It also doesn’t normally have good luck qualities when given as a gift, and it’s not a good luck charm. However, the word on the street is that alcohol does bestow good juju to newly married couples. It’s said to bless the marriage with happiness and health.

Patron Saint Jewelry

The patron saint concept is one that comes from Catholicism. They include St. Michael, St. Jude, St. Charles and others. Saints are often thought of as protectors, so jewelry with images of them or quotes by them can be good luck charms.

Protestants don’t normally recognize saints. However, other religions do. Neem Karoli Baba was considered a saint in India. “Be Here Now” author Ram Dass and devotional songwriter Krishna Das have given him fame in the west, and both are sources of many fascinating stories about him. Many of them were compiled in Ram Dass’s book, “Miracle of Love”.

When embodied, Neem Karoli Baba used to say, “Whoever comes in front of my photograph is seen by me.” People of many paths feel that way about their chosen saints, so a picture makes a nice gift. Someone made a necklace with a picture of NKB and sells it on Zazzle.

If you’re looking gift ideas for a Catholic or someone who loves a Catholic saint, Pendant Nation offers a collection of Patron Saint Medals.

Number Charms

It seems like everyone has their lucky numbers. If you want to stay religion-neutral in your gift choices,  numbers are a pretty universal choice. Make sure to find out what numbers the recipient associates with good luck.

Pendant Nation has a collection of number charms. They are pendants, so you can attach them to necklaces and other jewelry.

Graduation Luck Charms

Good luck charms do come in handy for people who have just graduated from a school or degree program.

There is no standard format for these. A pendant, knickknack or other piece of jewelry or object, in the likeness of something related to graduation is fine. Owls, diplomas, the year of graduation, a hat with tassels or a head wearing one all make good imagery for these things.

If you want to give someone a graduation charm pendant, we’ll take good care of you with a large selection.

Sports Charms, Key chains and Other Jewelry

This type of jewelry only acts as a good luck charm for a desired winner of sports games. If you know a die-hard Uconn Huskies basketball fan, or an enthusiast of a professional sports team, sports jewelry is great. There are many “superstitions” in sports, even among those who don’t consider themselves believers in magic otherwise.

Customized collegiate charms and other jewelry are easy choices, and we do carry those. Just click on the link in the previous sentence and choose your jewelry type, then your team and style (sterling silver, gold plated, etc). Choices include, but are not limited to, key chains, pendants, pins and necklaces.

Charms in General

We’ll be done with charms in a minute. Not all can be categorized. To plug our own wares again, we offer a 10K Gold “I love Bingo” piece, which may have some magic mojo properties in your favorite bingo venue. There is also one that declares “I love sex,” and this may very well help a male friend with his batting average or help a female friend find someone she actually wants to couple up with. At the very least, it’s a conversation starter for sure. You can get that at this link :  click here.

Rose Quartz Jewelry

Everyone wants love, or almost everyone. Rose quartz jewelry is a great gift for singles and those with significant others. Some people use it to attract love. Others use it because it is said it adds the energy of unconditional love to relationships. Either way, it’s hard to go wrong. It’s very beautiful, too. You can buy necklaces, bracelets and other jewelry with rose quartz beads.

We don’t carry rose quartz, but you have an entire internet to search through.
