Creative DIY Projects That Turn Trash Into Treasure

Hardware Jewelry Book

by

If you’re looking for some alternative materials to add to your jewelry projects, I encourage you to take a look at Nicole Noelle Sherman’s new book, Making Designer Jewelry from Hardware, Gems, and Beads. It’s packed with funky designs based on the nuts and bolts (literally) of the hardware store aisles: she incorporates simple stainless steel, aluminum, copper, brass and tin hardware, such as nuts, bolts, washers and tubing, into modern jewelry pieces.
