ReUse Republic

Hello, lots of new jewelry.

So my classmate Anni (I have to do a longer story in the future) was doing a project called ReUse Republic. It's a project where people make new things out of old and/or broken which come from stores. Anni got a big box of broken jewelry. And she told me that she had a lot of material and she didn't have the time to make any more jewelry than she had done already. 

So I went over and gathered some material from the 3 boxes she had got.

Went home and got crazy. I had to make all of these things for sunday. 

Anyways I finished them and Anni took them to the designer.
I'm not 100% sure if these will be sold from 3.-5. February in Tallinn.

 I apologize for some of the photos, cause my reflex camera camera broke down and I couldn't do one single shot anymore. And half of these are mad with a compact digital camera (wrote it right?) and they weren't 100% my standards, but I had no other choice , cause I had to take them to Anni already.

I have very little idea what are the beads or the pearls I used, but I'm sure the wires and chains and hooks are  high quality.

I'll show you some today and some on the next day:

 "Put on a bow and roll"

I really-really wanted to earrings like this for a very long time, but these types of earrings need a lot of different material in different sizes. But now! I was in heaven..

 

Soon show others..

Gemstones, semi-precious stones etc

So this time I wanted to talk about gemstones. 

They are very very beautiful. But also rather expensive. 

That's the reason I don't have many.

Some gemstones as amethyst can be found in geodes. A geode is a rock that is ordinary rock on the outside, but on the inside there are crystals. (Geood-kristallidega täidetud õõneskivim)

This is a very intresting subject cause there is an another mystery in a geode rock. But it's hard to tell the difference between an ordinary rock and a geode, you just have to crack it open. 

Pretty intriguing, huh!?

What would you do if you found one of those?

But it's not that hard, there are shops everywhere you can buy cut or uncut rocks over the world. (Even in Estonia :).

I personally liked the article of how to cut a rock here.

Some gemstones and some intresting facts about them:
