guitar string jewelry

What could be more fun than wearing music?! These earrings are made of shaped upcycled guitar strings! They hang on stainless steel ear wires. Notice the round pair has been slightly hammered. A unique conversation piece for sure! This exact pair has been sold, but I can make another pair just for you! I've also made them in a 'tear-drop' shape-very charming! Each pair is unique and handcrafted; no two are ever the same.

grandma's button jar heirloom ring

These antique rings from my grandma's button jar are examples of custom rings I could make for you. Do you have special buttons from your grandma's button jar? If you mail me your treasured trinket, I can custom make it into a special heirloom ring. Non-tarnish wire or Sterling Silver wire (recommended) is available. Wonderful as gifts for loved ones in your family. (these rings not for sale, they belonged to my grandma)
NOTE: Some vintage glass buttons are very delicate. Though I do my very best to treat your button with care, the glass shaft may break in the process of wrapping. This rarely happens, but has happened to me in the past, due to the fragile nature of the button. I am not to be held responsible for this 'casualty.' Thank you for understanding.

"Indian head" buttons surround this chain metal bracelet. A pop of whimsy for when you're feeling daring! SOLD.

Hammered Swirl Ring

This hammered swirl ring is so comfortable to wear. It works well if you have a hard time getting a ring on your finger, as it is slightly adjustable. It works best as a middle or pointer finger ring, due to its larger size. It can be made in non-tarnish craft wire or Solid Sterling Silver wire. I can custom make one for you!
