I love nothing more than to take something old and make it new again. So today we're exploring an eclectic mix of repurposed, recycled, and vintage jewelry.
In the picture above, earrings were made by preserving ordinary dictionary text under resin and placing under a vintage brass birdie. (Found at Foundling.) Below is a colorful assortment of other designer's ideas and pieces. It's really great to see such ingenuity: an old scrabble tile turned into a ring, a child's puzzle piece fashioned into a necklace, and vintage chains take on a whole new life when paired with different pendants.

Beautiful and touching, especially the 1st picture.
Thanks Angel! I think it's a lovely photo as well!
I like the necklace with the three lovely birds as a pendant. Same with the puzzle necklace. All the design are unique
Lovely pieces.
