I love using clear wine bottles to make beads and jewellery. There are so many things that I can do with them: make them sparkle with silver foil, make them sparkle with silver wire, make them sparkle with silver pixie dust!
Beer bottles and gold leaf are always a winning combo! I’m quite fond of this particular necklace. I love how it really shows off the shape of the beads, and the gold leaf. So pretty, I think I might make some in different colour combinations…
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.
