8 Products Guaranteed to Last a Lifetime

In this modern age, it seems that as swiftly as new products are invented, they become outmoded, swept away by something newer, shinier, and (inevitably) more expensive. It almost seems like these days nothing’s built to last. Luckily, that’s not entirely true. There are still a handful of tried and true products that will stick with you as the years roll by. We’ve gathered some of our favorite last-forever-buys that will live up to the promise of their lifetime warranties.

Redecorate Your Home for—and with—Pennies

You can get all the luster of a metallic surface without breaking the bank. The trick? Use pennies. Incorporating the coins into your design as a material can save money per square foot, and because the small copper “tiles” vary in appearance, they create a unique dimensional texture that looks luxurious. It may take some patience to lay out each penny individually, but the resulting statement piece will definitely amp up your DIY cred. So, gather up all those pennies weighing down your change purse or rattling in your car’s cup holder, and flip through to see the creative projects you can make with them.
