COPPER

Yesterday I found this piece of thin copper at my art school.

Since I can't really afford Rodarte or Rick Owens or Mcqueen, I have to somehow accessorize my simple and basic outfits. And I like going extreme when it comes to jewelry. So this copper, that caught my eye, could be a great accessory. I thought I could use it as a brooch, but a cuff made more sense.

I tried fitting it on my arm and it looked very nice. Not polished, but nice. I trimmed the edges so that they could be smooth and I crumbled it to look a bit more interesting. I am going to try engraving some lines on it or even studding it with coned studs. And of course I have to figure out the cuff's closing.

I like the idea of developing accessories. It's fun and not so difficult to play with different materials. I will let you know how my copper cuff develops.
