Hi, my name is Abby. I'm 12 years old. I live in Port Orchard, but I ship to anywhere in the U.S. I am a jewelry artist. I am just getting into sea glass, but my specialty is using recycled bike parts in my jewelry. Custom listings are offered, and I would love to make a custom listing for anyone who asks.
I started with sea glass just a little bit ago (like I explained earlier); and I started because we were on the beach and my dad suggested that we hunt for sea glass. I had no idea what it was, but he told me, and I love collecting it now. I am mostly just wire wrapping so far, but soon I will be drilling holes into my sea glass.
**What in the world is a carton wallet? A carton wallet is a wallet that is made out of a reused (and cleaned!) 1/2 gallon cardboard milk or juice carton. Check out my shop for pictures!!
**How can you make jewelry out of recycled bike parts? First, I go to a local bike shop and ask if they have any garbage bike chains. They usually do. When a bike chain gets worn down enough, it doesn't work well anymore. By then, it is usually garbage. Then, I will ask to see if they have any other garbage that I can use (like in my Heart of Recycling necklace, pictured below). I then go home and take the chain apart (actually, I sometimes ask my dad to. I'm only 12, so it is hard). I will then clean the parts off really well. Next, I make the jewelry!! :)
My shop is open year-round. I will ship on weekends, although it may be a little longer before you receive your item (like maybe 3 days instead of 2).
Please review my shop policies:
*Payment: Please pay me with Paypal if possible. I also receive checks.
