Turning a Broken Brooch into a Bracelet

A few months ago, Lilián asked for ideas on How to Turn This Brooch into A Bracelet Without Making a Hole in it.

The JMJ community suggested lots of interesting solutions for her in the comments on that post, and here she shares how her new bracelet turned out.

Here is the broken brooch before doing anything to it:

The brooch before it became a bracelet.

Finally I modified the brooch with one of the techniques that I like, and I work with every day, quilling paper!

The new quilling paper border, and how the broken brooch attaches to the bracelet.

And I combined it with earrings of the same material and technique. I was very pleased with the results.
