How beautiful are these upcycled jewelry pieces from artist Ann Kabza? She makes her Communication Wire line from old electronics, like printer cables!
Ann’s company – The Littlest Big Spoon – is a one-woman operation. On top of her Communication line of upcycled jewelry, she sells sweet heartbeat jewelry that she can even customize to match your very own heartbeat! Ann is a nurse practitioner, so you know those heartbeats are accurate!
What I love about her upcycled electronics jewelry is that not only does it keep some ewaste out of the landfill, it gets you thinking about those cables and wires in a whole new way. We generate tons (literally!) of ewaste every year, and I love the idea of fashion pieces that help us see those old electronics as something useful even when they don’t work anymore.
The Communication pieces aren’t the only upcycled jewelry that Ann makes. She also has lots of pretty vintage button accessories to choose from!
