Using old components

I have a lot of jewelry making components from years ago laying around in little boxes. Once in a while I'll use a few of them in a burst of creativity (and those projects will eventually be cannibalized to make something else).

The other day, I used a ring base I hadn't used in probably 8 years. I like creating unexpected color combinations from using just what I have on hand.



I also turned a short chain necklace into a multi-stranded chain bracelet. I put a charm I've had since middle school on the extender.



It's my name on a grain of rice. Can you see it in there?
