Jump Ring Necklace

Valentine-ish Pendant

This week I was inspired by a blog called Craft-Werk (Sonja from Dublin, Ireland).  She posted a tutorial about using recycled earrings (the lonely single earrings from all the lost pairs) to create pendants. I so happened to have some lonely broken bead type “junk” laying around.

Feeling justified here for keeping every single piece of old or broken jewelry item dating back to 1997.

Here is my version of Craft-Werk’s jump ring necklace.

Lovely, isn’t it? I like the part where it’s free. Free, of course, when you already bought a few bead making supplies, earrings (in the first place) and/or a silver chain. Those things were on-hand for me this go round.

Anyway, loop stray sparkling beauties hiding in the bottom of your jewelry box onto your favorite chain! They will thank you for showing them off!

Love,

JEss

Welcome to Just a Blink

My Family

Hi! My name is Jess.

When I'm 90 I'll probably feel like my whole life was just a blink. Even my early 30's it feels like life is speeding by.

Just A Blink gives me a place to jot down all that makes my life full. I write about thrifty home decor, family life, and finding simplicity.

My posts cover everything from my garage sale addiction to how I live my faith.

Thanks for reading along. Watch as time flies, it'll be fun!
