Forgotten Treasure

I've been given a bag full of old costume jewellery to make, mend, break and re-make! Quite an exciting prospect and a real challenge to make some new pieces from it. I've spent some of the afternoon in my jewellery workshop just sifting and sorting, even the broken parts can be dismantled and used for new projects. This year is definitely taking the theme of making the best of what you've got, it's time to start de-stashing and using what I've got before I start buying any more....ok, heard that before but how long can I stick to it this time!?

Here's some pics of the jewellery ripe for recycling....
