I love making things out of buttons, beads, paper and yarn, often including vintage materials to add a uniqueness that can't be found in mass-produced items. I especially love old paper :)
How do you reduce, reuse, recycle, recapture?
My soldered pendants include vintage maps, dictionaries, assorted papers, doilies, quilts and other ephemera. I also use the old maps and dictionaries for pinback buttons, magnets and cards. Used Scrabble letter tiles make great pendants, earrings, keychains and cell phone charms.
I knew as soon as I sent that last message, I would find where I could accept your invite. Yep, it happened! So, I just accepted your "friend" invite. Thanks!!
Thank you for joining us. The pendents look great. I guess with mapquest and google maps, traditional paper maps are no longer in hi demand. Nice idea reusing these relics of a time not so long ago.
