Can you change the design so you do not have to break up the pieces? I have always done either Christmas trees or wedding bouquets so I could keep the pieces whole.I have been trying to do a jewelry art project with my mom's jewelry and just can't get myself to break it apart yet. You need to break the jewelry to create the picture or shape you want. She had lots of nice pieces and so hard for me to "destroy" it. Guess I will lay it aside again until I am ready. I will keep looking at jewelry art for inspiration and one day it will be time.
I did sort the jewelry by color yesterday hoping to be inspired, but I just couldn't take it apart. That may be my next step...separating the parts when I am ready.
That's what I am trying to do. Which is why I set it aside for now. I told DH I should just wear it even if I am home puttering around.Can you change the design so you do not have to break up the pieces? I have always done either Christmas trees or wedding bouquets so I could keep the pieces whole.
Yes you should. No more using things for only dress up! Dress up every day even in short.That's what I am trying to do. Which is why I set it aside for now. I told DH I should just wear it even if I am home puttering around.
That's totally understandable, and I agree with the suggestion to wear it.I have been trying to do a jewelry art project with my mom's jewelry and just can't get myself to break it apart yet.
