Broken Plates Transformed

Illustration A
A few days ago we posted a photo of some of the pieces on which Trisha was working. At this point they had been shaped, smoothed and drilled. (Illustration A)

Now, these pieces have been transformed into pendants for necklaces and are ready to be worn. (Illustration B, enlarged below)

Pretty cool, huh?

New Designs by Trisha

By its very nature, every piece made by Trisha at Plate Breaker Jewelry is unique. Only a few of her designs are posted in the Etsy Store, but new designs are created each week. The best way to see what is available is to visit one of the shows at which she exhibits. More shows will be added very soon. In the meanwhile, contact Trisha if you see one you'd like to purchase.

This photo shows some of the plate pieces that she is working on this week.

Broken Dishes...Or Inspiration?

Most of us see these shards of broken plates as just that...But in the eyes of the artist, these are beautiful pieces of jewelry. Want to see them transform into works of art? Keep an eye on this site and our Etsy store to see what they turn into.

These discarded items will soon be turned into a wearable piece of art. You may call it recycling, being environmentally friendly, being green, or even upcycling, but your friends will call it stylish and unique.

Check out our Etsy Store or contact the artist to learn more.
