Apparently I am in an eco mood cause once again Alex Grey inspired me to repurpose some of his art but this time and unexpected material. I punched out 1" circles of a stack of Alex Grey Gift cards. I then sealed them together so that each token is double sided and long lasting. After hole punching them I added jump rings and made both a pair of dangle earrings and a necklace. It makes the most satisfying sound when it moves on your neck. I don't have a picture of the earrings yet but here's the necklace.
I had this 'skull fetus' (created by Alex Grey) necklace and while mind blowing on its own I was struck with the idea of adding a little sparkle. Being a magpie of types I love all things shiny :). I will never be able to make this particular one again as I don't know where I found the metal circle I wrapped it into and have had it knocking around for years. But that is the wonder of found object, upcycling and multi-media art.
