Today's show focuses on found objects and ideas for transforming them into distinctive jewelry designs. Katie begins with paper beads - turning trash into treasure. Then, Kristal Wick shows how to make a unique souvenir pendant by customizing a pendant with flat-back crystals and punching a hole in a souvenir pressed penny and dangling it from the pendant. Next, Mary Hettmansperger talks about the beauty of rusty treasures and shows how to safely incorporate them into one-of-a-kind, organic jewelry designs. Melanie Brooks is next with how to use resin to seal paper ephemera for jewelry making. Finally, Mark Nelson uses acrylin (a type of paint for metal) on a found object, emphasizing the curved surface.
