Sponsored Content - Craft Book Excerpt

The following is an excerpt from the new craft book...

Jewelry Upcycled!
Techniques and Projects for Reusing Metal, Plastic, Glass, Fiber, and Found Objects
Written by Sherri Haab and Michelle Haab



ABOUT THIS BOOK

Before you recycle that soda bottle, scrap that old T-shirt, or toss that broken china plate, ask yourself: “Could I use this to make something fabulous?” Impossible? Think again!
 
In Jewelry Upcycled!, jewelry expert and bestselling author Sherri Haab has teamed up with daughter Michelle Haab to show you how to transform metal, glass, plastic, fabric, and found objects—items you might otherwise recycle or throw away—into fun and exciting jewelry designs.
 
Explore the creative possibilities of these everyday materials in resourceful and innovative ways: Repurpose plastic bottles into pretty charms, turn broken cassette tapes into braided bracelets, and fashion one-of-a-kind pendants with found objects.

At first glance, the disks look like little shells!

Thanks for the tutorial, Potter!

I have never thought to fuse bubble wrap. I'm going to be adding that to my bag of crafty tricks.  Cool

Wow, what an awesome idea!  There's no way I would have guess that used to be bubble wrap.

I thought the first picture was little shells too!  I was trying to figure out where the bubble wrap came into play. Cheesy

This is a great idea!
