This snowflake ornament is made up of broken jewelry components.

Most of us have a few old and broken pieces of jewelry somewhere in our drawers or jewelry box.  A few of those pieces may even have sentimental value. I am taking those old pieces and turning them into ornaments I can enjoy and showcase.  All I need to do is cut the string for this old pearl necklace and I have plenty of beads to work with.  Once I add in the old wood bead necklace, I also have some interesting focal beads.

Instead of using a plier to twist each strung wire closed, they pushed an earring back into place.  These hold all my beads beautifully and create a professional looking finish.  I could permanently glue them, or leave them as is so I can reuse the beads in another project later.

The more you play with these snowflake frames the more ideas you will have.

Snowflake frames are available in three sizes.
