We would all have calmer nervous systems if we spent less energy trying to figure things out and more time making things that light us up.

This vintage hollyhock tin has a lovely aged patina. It makes me wonder about the life it had before it ended up on my bench.

The tin lives on as a bit of adornment for you. Available in the shop now at adaptivereuser.com

For Sufi, the winged heart is the symbol of our connection between the body and mind or heart and spirit.

The heart is considered the sacred temple to be worshiped.

This pendant is a reminder to stay in the frequency of love.

I love packaging up orders with all sorts of fun upcycled details. Here I’m making little paper envelopes to help protect the jewelry on its journey. I especially love to use old children’s books that are tattered beyond repair. How do you give new life to old materials in your day to day?
