Random Salvage Jewelry Spring 2013

It's been a while since I was here last.

I have a ton of catching up to do.

So many good blogs to visit.

There just aren't enough hours in a day.

In between the life happening thing, I've been trying to make a few new pieces of my Random Salvage Jewelry.

 Something new to wear for Spring.

I love these big green glass earrings.

Although, I wish I had nicer ear wires for them. 

They were vintage clip ons that I picked up for $2.

These bright colored ones are really simple and fun.

Art Junk

 For some reason I find myself being addicted to junk lately. Instead of my usual trips to the craft store for supplies, I've been gathering junk to use in my art projects and to decorate my home. When I found these old wire shoes, they were filled with dusty dirty silk flowers. My daughter said she wouldn't have seen the potetial in these when I bought them. I'm thinking of doing something with moss and antique lace. It's funny how somebody's dirty, old junk makes me happy.

 I love this primitive old drawer too. I'm thinking it would make a good shadowbox.

I took down several paintings and hung these old printers drawers in their place. I'm pretty sure my husband thinks I'm losing my mind. All I know is, I'm having fun collecting junk and thinking of ways to use them as art.
