You know what's hot in jewelry design this summer? Repurposing, or re-constructing jewelry from old pieces of vintage jewelry, magazines, clocks, dishes, books, clothing, chain, or other items, is being done by many designers now. I began repurposing jewelry about 7 years ago and I find it the most rewarding thing I have done. Besides that, its just plain fun to see what new pieces can be made from old, throw-away items! And they are so chic to wear ...
This piece of steampunk industrial jewelry comes from TuscanRose.com. The repurposed watch and chain adds vintage-cool to this hot summer item!
This next item from ChicMaddiesBoutique is designed with vintage earrings which have been repurposed into modern-day bridesmaid bracelets. Tres Chic!
Our third selection of repurposed comes from saucedepapel.wordpress.com. These bangles were made with recycled magazines. They look fabulous!
