You know all those containers without lids or lids without containers that accumulate in the cupboard? Have you ever wondered what happens to them? Well, it seems a goodly number of them end up in op-shops or worse, in landfills - eek! In this project I have reclaimed the humble lid to create some colourful jewels and am dead pleased with the way they look. The process and the variety of materials means that each one is different and they look really handmade - which they are of course but you know what I mean - they have little differences that give them that 'organic' approach. I am thinking of revving up my Etsy store again - maybe these should be the first thing I list? What do you think?

God knows there has to be a better use out there for all that toxic tupperware rather than putting the food we eat in it!!!!!!!!!!

Yes bring back Etsy.. I love the lime green jewels in particular.
