To start here we have one of my own Ephemera pendants. When you see this you think of a necklace, something maybe a little mythical or “Avenging Angel”! lol
Now this could be interesting… so think outside the box! What would you do with a pair of wings? You could certainly put one on each side in a necklace, or you could…
Make Earrings!! These are quite large of course, but that is the fun of thinking outside the box!
So here is the next idea…
A beautiful Pendant by Summers Studio! As you can see, the pendant has two holes at the top and one on the bottom. It is made to be hung a certain way, with a dangle at the bottom.
Well, think outside the box!
What a fun and unique piece it becomes! It hangs beautifully and you would never know it was meant to be done a different way!
Earrings! You just add your Art Beads {in this case lampwork by SueBeads} to the combo, sideways with jump rings as an extra out of the box touch! These are really perfect for spring and you know no one else will be wearing them 😉
Keep an eye out for my next post, it will be a continuation of this one, with pieces made by other designers I have challenged to “Think outside the box!”

February 9, 2012 at 5:16 pmSuch a great idea Miss Marie! I love to think outside the box and when given a component I try to find a different way to use it. That is using your noggin!
Enjoy the day!
