Thank you all for stopping by and for leaving such interesting comments on my previous giveaway post…I very much enjoyed hearing about your inspirations. And you’ve opened my eyes up to some things that I haven’t noticed before in nature. Thank you…I love how we can all learn from each other.
Colleen Wilkins was randomly picked as the winner this time. Colleen, I’ll be emailing you to get your address.
Since we’re on the subject of things that are three-in-one, here’s a look at something that I recently put together using three bracelets (previously made from an old necklace in this post)…
…to create this one new necklace…
…which could also be worn as a triple stranded bracelet.
It seems that I am programmed to reuse things over and over and over again, switching and changing, always making with my hands what I envision in my mind…usually with a practical purpose. Who knew that being practical could be so much fun…are you like this also?

Congratulations to Colleen – lucky girl!
I like the idea of linking three bracelets together to form a necklace and this one is especially interesting as it was from a necklace that it all began.
Breaking links and forging them again…

You’ve made a wonderful necklace/bracelet. It has that feel all your pieces have – soft colors, light, feminine piece, dreamy. And what’s even better, you reused things, which is something I do more and more lately and find very inspiring and fun.
Congratulations to Colleen! 🙂

Congratulations to Colleen.
Your necklace/bracelet is quite stunning with the most gorgeous colours.
Oh I definitely re-use and re-purpose and get a bit of a buzz when I take something that people would bin and make something with it. It’s always about fun 🙂

A big congrats to the lucky winner! I just love your new “up-cycled” bracelet/necklace, Becky. I have THE hardest time throwing anything away. I’m always hoping I can breathe new life into things. Makes for a pretty crowded craft room/basement/garage/etc. . . . ;o)
