It’s day 5 of my #ayearofrecycledglassjewellery challenge! I’m really loving making all of these new necklaces. I promise I will be making some new earrings very soon for all of the earring lovers out there!
Today I have put together a selection of cool blues, clears and silvery tones. Perfect for such a hot day! Reminds me that we are going swimming very soon. Stay cool…
We are on summer holidays here, and my days are being filled with sunshine, swimming and recycled glass beads!
This necklace is made with beads from a Moet champagne bottle, as well as beads made from Peroni beer bottles. Both greens are so different, it was lovely to mix them together in this necklace.
These are some of my favourite beads to make, and I love the mix of colours in this necklace. It feels just right for a warm day like it is here.
I have used an assortment of recycled glass to make the beads in this necklace. It has ended up being a longer style necklace, another option that is perfect in this warmer weather.
I have been making beads from Coopers Ale bottles for a long time, and I still love etching the glass to create a matt finish. Both of these earrings are classics, earrings that you will probably wear forever!
Hello, and welcome to my blog for 2018! I’m a big fan of New Years. I also love new months, new weeks, and new days! This year I have decided to challenge myself a little bit. I’m going to share a photograph of recycled glass jewellery every day. I love making beads from recycled glass, and I love that people resonate with it so much.
To kick the year off I have made a necklace from some of the recycled glass beads that I made from a Coopers Ale bottle. I love the sparkly gold and silver beads in between.
To be honest, I really love that a product destined for a bin can be transformed into a beautiful, wearable piece of art! Thanks for joining me on this journey for 2018.
