Green Karat, the makers of eco-friendly wedding and commitment rings have started a new earth saving program. Getting married? …ask all your friends and relatives to donate old jewelry (broken chains, the one remaining earring, the unused class ring, etc.) to be recycled and remade into your wedding rings. Reusing your gold means that you won’t create any demand for additional mining, plus you’ll create keepsake rings embedded with the love of family and friends. They even have the online tools set up so that you can create a registry and invite friends and family to recycle on your behalf. Click to get the details of the program at My Karat.

Not to mention that Green Karat make beautiful handcrafted rings and they are open to custom work as well.
