Today I wanted to share a fun recycled charm I am making for the charm swap...
I'm using a vintage electrical resistor as the main part of my charm today.
Here's what they look like....
I found these in among a whole bunch of interesting old electrical stuff at an auction. I figured I could do something cool with them so I bought the whole kit n caboodle! I love the colors and with a wire on both ends they just scream altered charms.
Here's what I did...
I started off by turning the wires into loops on each end....
Bend....
Loop....
Wrap & Snip off excess....
Finished Loop....
Then I added a couple gears on one end and a lobster claw finding on the other end.
Ta-Daaaaaa.....
Pretty cool huh?
Just something a little different anyway.
I think they will be cool sprinkled in among all of the other charms in the swap :)
just beautiful roni xxx
