In the name of recycling

Because recycling is great! Just think about how many reusable stuff we throw out all the time: paper that can be recycled, clothes that could make someone happy, food that could feed hungry children, and yes, this also applies to jewelry.

A good friend of mine offered me the jewelry she does not wear any longer. She collected them in a small bag and I could choose the ones that are not plastic and can be reused. I demounted them and now will reuse the beads and pieces.

This earring contains all bits of different stuff: metal coin, wooden and shell pieces, jaspis mineral fragments and the tiny rounded beads that are carved from real bone and have just been given another chance by getting recycled.

A walk on the beach

La Kukac wanted to feel some summer breeze today.

Walk on the beach, feel the sand between your toes, step on tiny shells, hear the fishermen from the distance, see as the sea and the sky become one on the horizon, feel the smell of the seawater, step into it and on the small pebbles at the bottom, walk along the shore, going nowhere. Look up and see nothing else but the light brown sand and the light blue sea.

This necklace is the way I made this dream come true today.

Made of wood and another lovely mineral: a kind of jasper or jaspis (képjáspis in Hungarian). It is a semi-precious stone. Said to relieve the feeling of guilt, bring us closer to the past and to the earth and cleanses the kindeys, while at the same time strengthens the stamina.

For whoever believes in astrology, this mineral fits mostly the Capricorn and the Taurus as these are earthy, solid signs which the jaspis helps to develop and deepen their inner good qualities.
