I fashioned this unusual necklace from a bottle cap I found on a Texas trail. I embellished it with numerous lengths of coiled copper wire, and added a green glass bead with hints of copper/brown. This bottle cap has a patina and holes both the result of natural aging outdoors. It reminds me of the struggles hikers face in inclement weather. It is 1.5 inches long by 1.25 wide.
The pendant is suspended on a 22 inch copper 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.
