| Made this in early October, it sold at the first show I had it at. |
 |
| 50-60's adding machine |
 |
| old sewing machine parts and accessories. |
 |
| yet another old adding machine, this one was made in Italy! and ended up in a antique store in Des Moines, go figure |
 |
| gorgeous cogs from the Italian Adding Machine |
OK, that cleans out my file. I really like the bat bracelet, and I bought another one but I don't want to make exactly the same bracelet of course. The random pics of old appliances we bought I wanted to show because that's where my jewelry seems to be shifting more and more too... salvage, reuse, upcycle, recycle, etc. I got a good bargain on the adding machines.. we both both of them at the same place. They are both now ripped up and I have the parts.. waiting on inspiration.. thought I've made some earrings using the most adorable ( can I use that word when talking about cogs??? ) cogs you ever saw, little thick ones. They are like the popcorn shrimp of the reuse world... you can never have enough of them!
