About adaptive reuse

As an avid thrift shopper, Christine was overjoyed to find a way to put all those unloved decorative tins to use as gorgeous, one-of-a-kind jewelry. Each piece is individually handcrafted and perfect for women looking to express their unique voice in the world. Unlike silver, gold or copper, tins come in an endless array of colors and patterns. Many tins were once their own forms of advertising. Printed with images and typography from times past, these tins speak directly to Christine's training as a graphic designer and love for vintage commercial design and ephemera. Using upcycled and non-precious materials is her conscious choice to work with materials that already exist without any further resource extraction. Christine's eco-aware aesthetic resonates deeply with people striving to reduce their impact on the planet as well as those just looking to wear something beautiful. Tin is a naturally thin and lightweight material, so even large earrings can be worn in complete comfort. Feather light and clean lined, Christine's work is perfect for people sensitive to the 'too muchness' of some chunky jewelry. Always looking for new ways to stretch creatively or push on the boundaries of the material, Christine is forever dreaming up new designs and finding different tins to use for many of her classics. Keeping things fresh and interesting is at the heart of her creative practice.
