Images found on CoolPictureGallery, show how broken crockery can be re-purposed into gorgeous jewellery pieces.
Another alternative to ceramic jewellery? Using miniature dollshouse china. Aren't these little treats the cutest?

Each To Own sell "Nanna Platter" (love that name!) necklaces for $35
Thought I'd have a go myself. I browsed the 'used' section of dollshouse miniatures on eBay, and found two cute little plates.
An Irish scene and a plate with rabbitsWhen they arrived in the post, I did find they were too large to make into necklace pendants, so instead, using a glue gun and brooch backs, I've made both of them into brooches.

Some people have amazing ideas!
I'm melting! What a great idea making the brooches! xo
These are lovely and so creative. The "broken china" earrings are especially beautiful.
These are really amazing Erica! I love the broken pieces - they are quite unique! xx

@keshling I've been trying to find out who made these lovely pieces, but so far, have had no luck, there appears to be no reference to the artist on any website!
I love them all - especially the gorgeous earrings and your brooches. I am totally inspired!

Those pieces are amazing, I'd love to know who made them too, they're beautiful. And I've seen little teacup etc necklaces before, but nothing like your plate brooches - great idea! x
so pretty very ingenious ideas! The next time I break a precious cup or plate I'm going to think twice about throwing the pieces away!
