Green Accessories; Eco Friendly Jewelry

It seems that everywhere I go I see the phrase "go green". So much so, that it has become a trend (let's hope not a fad) in everyday life, art, fashion, and more. I have a few designs in my shop that I wanted to talk about that would be the perfect gift for that "green" person in your life.

My Guitar String Ring is made completely by recycled/repurporsed guitar strings that are sent to me by musicians all over the DC area. Each one has it's own personal musical story. The one's pictured are $13, and they're stackable! To purchase this ring, or a guitar string ring of a different style, please visit: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=17722770


My Mod Silver Bird design is one of my most popular. It is made from Artclay, which is a precious metal clay (99.9% silver suspended in a clay binder). Artclay is made from recycled silver from the film industry. Now I've turned it into a cute little bird to adorn your neck.

Necklaces range from $28-34 you can purchase them here: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=16625647



Don't know what to do with your old broken watch? Turn it into a "timeless" piece of jewelry (sorry I couldn't help myself :-)
Alot of times in my designs I will use objects I've found, old keys, etc. This necklace "Time for Steampunk" features watch gears, hands, etc. and an antique winder. It's one of a kind, $46 and can be purchased here: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=17810589

My entire Etsy shop (http://www.ofnaturedesigns.etsy.com/) is natured themed and you'll find lots of great eco-friendly accessories there! Hope this inspires you to look good and be green doing it. :-) Happy Shopping!
