I recently went through a bunch of old unused jewelry to see what I could possibly re-use in my jewelry making.

I had an old pair of earrings I used to wear about 25 years ago. No kidding!

And I had a pair of unusual earrings that I thought might be fun to do something with.

Well behold this amazing necklace!

So I took one of the earrings and I used it as a pendant on this crochet necklace. I used Czech Beads with some metal triangle beads and this is what I designed.

And to think…. before I used to make jewelry I would have probably thrown these earrings in the trash.
