I love purchasing jars of junk jewelry at Goodwill. However I have come home disappointed the last few months as I stopped into many Goodwill stores and the glass counter didn’t have any of those tantalizing jars. Finally, last week I scored!!! My eyes popped out as I saw two jars chocked full of treasures and I didn’t have to think twice if I wanted them. When I got home it was so fun to dump the contents on the table and sort.
When I had the pile of bangle bracelets I thought it would be fun to experiment with making a pretty piece of art
Two of the bracelets had pretty beads secured to the outside so I used glue to attach some beads to two of the silver toned brangles.
I played with the design using interesting pieces from the junk jewelry jar. Then I decided on the acrylic paint color and covered a 10 x 10 gallery wrapped canvas with two colors of acrylic paint.
After everything was glued down with E6000, the title dawned on me….”Second Chance” and this junk jewelry is definitely having a second chance!
