Birds of Change Exchange



Just mailed off my set of 5 to the Creative Kismet for her Birds of Change Exchange. This are made with recycled pop cans and beads that are really seeds & pits. I scavenged them from a necklace I found in a "classy" thrift shop.

Due to the response the birds are now available for purchase at the shop.
There are more pics up at flickr.

These are breathtaking! How in the world do you recycle pop cans (or, um, soda cans...) to create something so beautiful? You should do a tutorial or a brief how-to (unless you already have, then please point me to it!)

I love the wings on them... :)

These are made by cutting the can with a die cut machine. Unfortunately, I think it might be dangerous to attempt to cut the complicated shapes out manually. They are now available for purchase at our shop.
