I am irresistibly drawn to jewelery made of cutlery. I can't explain why.
I like jewelery but I find it wasteful and excessive. I love scraps and botched bits and pieces. I have never like the scent of a new car or unwrapping layers from a package. Instead I like discovering treasures in Junk.
So finding jewelery that is essentially junk pulls me in in a crazy way.
I found these while browsing on Etsy but somehow they were not exactly what I wanted.

I found some Spoon rings as well, which apparently was what British servants were using as wedding rings as they couldn't afford to buy them. I find that heartbreakingly and amazingly touching. I'm opposed to marriage in principle but seriously, if a guy went down on one knee and held out a box made of cardboard and felt with that ring inside, I would probably say yes. :)
Here is another store I like as well.

He has tons of amazing stuff, this is one of my favourites
I'm going to order one of these but I am still making up my mind. Hope none of them get sold before I decide.
So I googled and found a wealth of sites, here are some of my favourites.

I'm going to try the plastic ring at home one lazy Saturday.
Best for last
