From the Library: Fabulous Jewlery from Found Objects

Lots of basic techniques for working with found objects using commonly available (i.e. in your garage/basement/workshop) hand tools. Many of the jewelry examples were constructed using more specialized jewelry making tools and techniques, but not so much as to be discouraging for us craft dilettantes.








Beverage can brooches--I want to try this one, it looks like it has some possibilities, even beyond brooches. AND it would use up some of those "vintage" beer cans living in my basement...








I also want to borrow this idea, using my new lozenge tins. I don't know about cuffs, per se, my tins seem a bit big, but maybe a pin or pendant?
