Recently I was in a swap to make a mixed media art doll from recycled jewelery.I enjoyed this project so much that I made a few more and I WILL be making more of them in the near future.
I have been scrounging thru' my stash of old jewelery and on the look-out for more treasures to pull to pieces at our local op shops but am finding it hard to get any there these days. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I did making them.
I have tried to keep them all around 6 inches long...some are a little shorter than that tho'.
This little pretty was my first. She was the one made for the swap.
This one now lives with my dear friend Bevlea in Melbourne.
This one has a vintage mother of pearl butterfly brooch as her "crown". She looks like she is ready to "spring into action" at any given moment....LOL.
This one reminds me of an Amazon woman...don't know why cos she doesn't really look like one ....LOL
This one isn't all jewelery (obviously...vbg). Her body is of a sheet of tin that already had the all over pattern pressed into it and in it's original shape...goodness knows what it was originally but I have 4 pieces of it. It is coloured with Alcohol Inks. 
This bright little Sprite is made using a large jigsaw piece that I textured and then coloured with paints. She has a bottle cap head and printed wings.I am off to bed again now so I will add more tomorrow.
