Recycled Paper Jewelry

I’m constantly amazed at the quality of artists on Etsy. This artist works as a biologist by day, and transforms herself into a recycled paper jewelry maniac by night! The results are stunning.
$45.00 for the ring at Frucci Design’s Etsy Shop

Imagine the surprise when upon looking a little closer the true nature of the piece is exposed to be created from old recycled magazines….you can tell them its made from ‘junque’!
$70.00 for the Mattonella Pendant at Frucci Design’s Etsy Shop

This broach was once a grocery bag from Trader Joe’s!
$90.00 at Frucci Design’s Etsy Shop

I am a 4th grade teacher and have begun teaching my students about recycled projects. So far, just cards. I saw your www and what an inspiration. Would you share a pattern for a very simple project? Our Mascot is a STAR. We’ve painted a mural from left over paint, created cards for parents at Thanksgiving and Christmas and recently enjoyed a Mother Earth Play. I’d love this as a project if you could find a simple pattern. Our school has tons of left over paper, we have started sorting through the “pretty” stuff as they call it and they are hooked. Thanks, Sharon, teacher
