I fashioned this fun and funky necklace from a discarded aluminum beverage can I found on an Arkansas hiking trail. The can is in shades of reddish pink and white. It has multiple layers creating three flowers which have ivory glass beads at the centers with tiny glass seed beads springing forth on fine copper wire. I accented the flowers with spirals of green aluminum wire. This necklace is cheery, playful, and very lightweight. It measures 3 inches long by 2.25 inches wide.
I strung the pendant on a 22 inch stainless steel ball chain that can be cut to fit.
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.
