Mod Necklaces Made From Electrical Parts

Take Action (eco-tips)

Best holiday gift this year? These funky necklaces by my Aunt. Nearly done with a massive home renovation project, she had a basement full of spare electrical parts—not just wire, but switchplates, ring, bullet, and closed end wire connectors, if we are going to get all technical. Being an art teacher, she quickly saw an opportunity to create something unique—and recycled—for the whole family. Do you have jewels hidden in your basement? For best results: Go minimal dress and wear to an art opening.
