Meet the Maker

Hi, I'm Linda Ayers. I create fun, funky jewelry from upcycled materials. My search for lightweight earrings and my love of mixed media techniques led me to create my first earrings from watercolor paper. But experimentation with mixed media evolved into using everyday household packaging materials and upcycled tin and aluminum.

I'm inspired by the colors, patterns and textures in nature. Making jewelry from materials that are thrown away if not recycled reminds me to do what I can to be a good steward of our planet, as I hope it reminds everyone who wears it. It truly is statement jewelry!

How it’s Made

Tin cans have their own fascinating texture and I use many hand-fabrication techniques to make my unique pendants and tin earrings. I both hand and die-cut pieces that I then hammer, sand, and sometimes emboss.  The tin is then embellished with everything from paints and colored pencils to hardware store baubles and bits turned into findings and decorative focal points. A water-resistant coating makes it suitable for everyday wear.  And because it is made from upcycled materials, it truly is statement jewelry!

FAQs:

CUSTOM ORDERS: All jewelry is handmade by me and many pieces are one-of-a-kind. I am not accepting custom orders at this time, but with so many designs to choose from you'll feel like you placed a custom order. Read the How It’s Made section to learn more about my process.

JEWELRY CARE:

As with all jewelry, it's best to avoid contact with liquids, lotions, and aerosols like hairspray or sunscreen. Remove jewelry before sleeping. Tin pendants and other metals have a moisture and rust-resistant coating, but avoid immersing them in water or wearing them during strenuous exercise. 

Paper earrings are extremely lightweight, so I suggest wearing silicone backs to keep from losing them (I include extra with your purchase). And remember to remove them before entering the water. They are water resistant, but not waterproof. 

PATINA ON METAL: I often embellish my jewelry with silver-plated and copper wire. Copper and silver naturally darken, developing a patina over time. If you prefer a brighter look, a light touch with a silver polishing cloth will restore the luster.

NECKLACE CORDS: Many of my pendants are hung on silicone cord. If it gets 'bent out of shape' from being coiled in storage for a long time, the heat from a hair dryer should get it back in shape. To avoid having this happen, hang your pendant when not wearing it.
