Have you ever heard the quote “the universe is giving you what you asked for”?

Well, I have a list of jewellery items I want to make and I keep hoping what I want to make lines up with what my metamorphosis volunteers like and want. And it’s happening! Thank you universe!

I wanted to make a bangle with star-set stones. I’ve made similar pendants in the past but not any bangles with this type of setting and it just looks so dreamy on a bangle!

I’ve always had a thing with stars my whole life (I’ve had the same star keychain for the last 15 years) so the idea of incorporating then in jewellery designs brings me joy!

I envision this being a great gift for anyone, but especially mothers and grandmothers: the stars can represent all the children and grandchildren! I can use white stones or birthstones and make the bangle in silver or gold!

To make this I melted down some unique silver pieces including a picture frame and a cutlery base. For the record, cutlery bases aren’t really worth taking apart. They are glued, and I mean GLUED to whatever is in the inside and they don't seperate well. Do you have any non-jewellery sterling silver items you would melt?
