Since I started making jewellery, I have developed this habit of keeping some of my ‘it didn’t work’ creations.

Broken bracelets, necklaces that were never finished, earrings without a pair, a wonderful clasp but nowhere to attach it, a beginning of an idea that needed time to mature… anyway, pieces that, for some reason, I felt the need to keep.

Well, well, now I must say that this habit made me accumulate a few boxes that I have been revisiting for the past few weeks. It is incredible how taking a break gives us a new perspective.

So, for now, I am enjoying looking back at these old experiments and giving them a second chance.

What do you think?
