Recycling silverware into the most fantastic silver jewelry ever is, once again, my friends, Barbara C. Ryan and Elsa M. Mikus. They run an awesome shop based on a green reuse concept which keeps metals out of the landfills. Tempest In A Teapot is a small business which specializes in recycling and reusing teapots and silverware into beautiful jewelry and wind sculpture creations.
Barbara and Elsa sent the Medussa Clamp Bracelet (see photo) for Gardening Nude to give-away to one lucky reader for the holidays. This real silver bracelet is made out of an antique fork and is valued at $70. Also included in the give-away is a pair of Vintage Silver Plate Earrings (see photo). These adorable earrings are made from demitasse spoon handles and are valued at $30. That’s $100 worth of silver right at the holidays – what a great gift!
