upcycled jewelry bags belts moreToday I have an extra special giveaway, Cico Books has provided 3 copies of the book Upcycled Jewelry: Bags, Belts, and More by Linda Peterson to giveaway to you lucky Craft Gossip readers. Leave a comment in today’s post by February 14th, 2015 and you will be in the running for this super creative and innovative book.

I have seen a lot of recycled jewelry and accessories in my day as it’s one of my all time faves to make but in this new book there are a whole bunch of projects that feature really innovative techniques. There are quite a few projects as well that feature materials I have never seen used in such unique and pretty ways! If you like this kind of thing I bet you will be as inspired as I am.

More about the book:

Upcycle to create 35 stunning pieces of jewellery and accessories. Discover how to take something that was destined for the rubbish bin and give it a new purpose, transforming it into something beautiful. Expert crafter Linda Peterson shows you 35 creative ways to upcycle ring pulls from drinks cans, zips, plastic, bike chains, tyre tubes and more. From a stylish ring pull belt to a pretty gold zip bracelet, and from stamped plastic earrings to a chunky bike chain bangle, there’s plenty here to inspire you to get crafting. Every project has clear step-by-step photographs to guide you, and a basic techniques section covers all you’ll need to know.
