Round glasses, large nose… Kinda looked like the boy from Bullwinkle cartoon, Sherman, (& Peabody). Cute.

Serendipity strikes again! I love the challenge of repurposing things. You never know when something will have the potential to be an outstanding design.

Adding the accent beads and little weaving in of some wire, and it looks like a totally intentional freeform design! I once did a similar thing with a discarded sterling “mistake”. it was long and thin with squiggles. One shopper said it looked like intestines, but then another came along and fell in love with it. Go figure!

This is such an intriguing way to turn one project’s reject into another project’s focal element. Thanks so much for sharing your creativity with us! 🙂
