While exploring the Bling Bucket, I discovered two shimmering pieces of mother-of-pearl that had once been shoe clips. Transformed into an arched window shape for a pendant and earrings, they impart a glimpse of their new purpose.

I also selected a strand of glass pearls, single-pearl studs, dated clip-on earrings, and a damaged floral brooch—items with visible signs of wear that I viewed as artifacts with rich histories rather than mere discarded jewellery.

Inspired by themes of transformation and renewal, much like spring after winter, I crafted a necklace and earrings that honour the origins of these pieces while allowing them to begin a new journey. Through disassembly and reimagination, these materials are given a second life, continuing their story through adornment.
