These earrings, made from @bethanywines_barossa wine bottles, are a little bit elegant, a little bit fun and a little bit different.

Inspired by Monday! I was tidying my desk this morning and found a bunch of copper tubes that I had enamelled for an exhibition last year. I had actually forgotten how much I enjoyed the process and the finished result! I am definitely going to be making more pieces this year. This pair of mismatch earrings features enamel copper tubes and the pink beads from Friday!

Sunday sets. I love the simplicity of this set of jewellery. The flower beads are made from a Skyy Vodka bottle. I think you could wear this set day and night.

Behind the scenes. Love this photograph taken by @rosinapossingham If you look closely you will see that the orange glow at the bottom is the bead on a mandrel and the top orange glow is the glass I am melting to add to the bead!

I am loving Friday’s because it’s the day I get to find some new glass and test it out to see how it melts into beads. I don’t often use pink glass, but I was curious about this cup. Actually really happy with the result. Will definitely be making some more beads with this glass for other additions to projects.

Day 24. A bit side-tracked by my very sick dog at the moment, but in between phone calls from the vets I managed to find some time to make this seriously pretty bracelet. Lucky I had all of these beads in my recycled glass beads collection! Various glass objects included.

Keep thinking cool thoughts South Aussies! This heat will pass.

Keeping it cool today with Bombay Sapphire Gin and Fever-Tree tonic water bottle beads. This necklace is a work in progress. Needs more beads I think!

I love the shape and colour of these recycled glass earrings. Just a little bit different.

I found some more silver and gold beads in my collection and was inspired to make this necklace featuring beads made from gin and beer bottles. 

I was also inspired by a recent conversation with my daughter where I was trying to explain to her what “contrast” meant.

I love combining blue and green recycled glass beads. The colours always look so pretty together. The beads in the necklace were made from wine, gin and vodka bottles. The earrings are from a wine bottle.
