How to Recycle Glass and Jewelry Into Window Art

1. I had some glass bottle tops left over from another instructable and wanted to make a craft.
2. I also had a basket full of broken jewlery/costume jewelry that I've been collecting.
3. I decided to make glass art to hang in the window above my plants.

2. I attached the key ring to the second link on chain.
3. I put the chain thru the bottom of the bottle and brought it thru the top. I placed a clip on to the chain to hold the bottle and chain in place.

1. If you had broken jewelry, like I've been collecting, this is a craft for you;)....Pick through your stash and find the pieces you want to use. I found a long black beaded necklace and 2 old earnings.
2. Cut the necklace in thee piece and tied off the ends. I took off about an inches of beads on the end. So I had room to tie it to chain.
3. Next, tied each stran to the bottom of the chain.
4. Last, Each string gets charm piece attached to the bottom.

1. Last, hang the glass art in a window. I hung mine above the houseplants.
