Glass Flower Necklaces

Recycled glass necklace | handmade recycled glass beads made from Bethany Wines wine bottles.

I tested out some of the little flower beads a while ago, and was quite pleased with how they turned out. Today I made a necklace! Such a pretty little combination of flowers and colours.

Bead Stick Sculptures

Recycled glass beads | bead stick sculptures featuring beads made from Bethany Wine bottles

Every now and then I like to do something a bit different from jewellery! This year I have made four bead stick sculptures for the various exhibitions that I am part of. At The Adelaide Remakery I will have 2 sculptures made from a Bombay Sapphire Gin bottle. I forgot to photograph them before I… Read More

Splash of red

Recycled glass bracelet | beads made from gin and wine bottles

I thought I would try something a little bit different today. I was originally planning to put the red beads with some green beads, but then I thought…maybe try the blue beads! Glad I did, this bracelet is super sweet. Perfect with jeans and a red jumper (which I happen to be wearing today)!!

Glass Flower Garden

Recycled glass flower bracelet | beads made from assorted wine bottles and other broken glass objects.

When I started planning my SALA exhibition at Bethany Wines I was thinking that all of the jewellery had to incorporate glass flowers, as that is what GlassBlumenGarten is – Glass Flower Garden. But today I went to see the Impressionists at the Art Gallery of South Australia, and it made me realise that the… Read More

Random glass objects

Glass Flower Necklace | handmade recycled glass beads from various coloured glass objects

I love going to op shops to see what glass they have. I often find single coloured glasses and small bowls, and over the years I have built up a little collection of glass objects. For my exhibition at The Adelaide Remakery I selected 5 pieces that were different colours and made flower jewellery that… Read More

Made from a broken window

Recycled glass necklace | beads made from a broken window

Years ago I made some beads from a broken window, and I had kind of forgotten about that as a source of recycled glass until I was planning my work for The Adelaide Remakery. I thought a broken window would suit the theme of the exhibition really well. I tried some new techniques to make… Read More

Design

Recycled glass beads | design ideas, earrings or necklaces?

I thought about design a LOT while I was away. Often what I share with the world is a finished and polished product that is ready to purchase. What you don’t always get to see are the sketches, the prototypes, the changes of direction, the tweaking that goes on behind the scenes. Things that might… Read More

Colour Play – Cool Colours – Blue, Green and Purple

Handmade glass bead necklace

When I started looking at cool colours, I was always finding myself thinking about how nicely they went together. Then I started making the beads and thought – oh, these colours look really nice together! So, I made some extra beads and then made one final necklace in this series which combined all of the… Read More
