Silver Spoon Jewelry???

Has anyone purchased from this company? Their things are romantic. It is like silver plate with something over it but it looks like pure silver.........I would like to try them.

There are many people who make beautiful jewelry from vintage silverware. I have a bracelet made from a fork set with a hunk of dichroic glass. You can even order specific patterns made into jewelry from the Relacements.com site. I have a ring made from the "Taos" pattern which is stainless thus very inexpensive.

I often see crafters at shows selling jewelry or other objects made from flatware. Some very clever people out there!

Not jewelry, but I've seen windchimes in some movies that are made out of spoons and forks.

Usually at some old house in the woods.

They always sound so pretty!

And so not related but my sister used to play the spoons

Not from this company. But I did have silver spoon ring back in the 1970's when they were popular. I loved wearing it.

@PhilaLady1 Love this idea. And yes I also have a spoon my Dad made for me a bracelet out of an old Campbell Kid soup spoon. We sent away for the spoons at very young ages.

Dad did a great job carefully bending and molding mine for my wrist. I still have it!

Then for a birthday some yrs ago my sister gave me a beautiful flatware fork that's a lovely bracelet. Love the pattern, the tines have curled edges of course.

I had a spoon ring when I was very young. I think you can buy them on Etsy now.

@Kachina624 I made a silver spoon ring by purchasing an shrimp fork in my silver pattern. After sawing off the handle & enough to make a size 5 ring, I hammered it around a ring form and now have a bypass ring!

@Shanus Blurry but it looks pretty. Are you familiar with the Kirk Repousse pattern? A friend has that pattern which is sterling. I've always thought it would make a beautiful bracelet.

@Kachina624 Many of the patterns with the larger, ornate handles make beautiful jewelry. Some of my customers inherit silver and know they’ll never use it, want to sell it, but want a remembrance of Grandma, etc. I use a piece to make bracelets, a pendant or rings all the time.
