In this unusual necklace I combined a wire nut (used by electricians to connect 2 wires) that I found while hiking in Arkansas with a quartz crystal (I also found in Arkansas). I used a piece of blue foil from a gum wrapper (I found on the same trail in Arkansas) and affixed it to one facet of the crystal then then inserted the crystal into the wire nut that I first adorned with seed beads in shades of blue and coiled copper wire. The result is unusual and earthy; fun and funky. The clasp is a simple s-hook.
It is strung on an adjustable 24" copper chain.
Creating Trail Trash jewelry and art with discarded items is one of the ways I contribute to keeping trails clean and unspoiled. When you purchase one of these items you are helping me in my personal endeavors and I thank you!
Trail Trash jewelry takes many different forms, but usually involves items I find along trails or hiking paths - back country, rural and urban. I clean/prepare these items and use them to create unusual yet beautiful necklaces, earrings, bracelets or other works of art.
I have made every effort to eliminate sharp edges, rough areas, and any other imperfections that could cause injury of a person or clothing. It is nearly impossible to remove every bit of these defects so please take care when handing/wearing these items.
