Have you ever lost one earring from a favorite pair? That's happened to me several times lately. I've been wanting to incorporate the saved mates into a different piece of jewelry, and I finally figured out how!
At a craft show last fall a lady had the ingenious idea of attaching the round part of a bracelet closure to a necklace latch that could clip onto any necklace chain or cord and then attaching charms to the bar part of the closure that slips into the circle.
I thought this was such a great idea that I just had to post it on my blog. This came from a very creative lady, her blog is "PILLOWS A-LA-MODE". Check it out if you get the chance and have the time! ~ Julie

Hi Julie – ingenious and very pretty, too. And a wonderful way to “recycle” jewelry pieces.

Wow . . . thank you for the shout out, Julie! I hope you make one and post it so I can see it!
Have a wonderful weekend! Best, Katherine

I enjoy creating things that are useful and it’s always nice when you find others who are similar. Thanks for such a great idea!
