How to Upcycle Jewelry

[@minhtun6164]

I love Rose so much! Her personality is so infectious!!! Thank you for the great video ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@FireMountainGems]

She's great! You are so welcome and thanks for watching.

[@missmeadowjewelry6216]

Please make more videos with Rose, I love her!

[@dhitz01]

I love to upcycle and would enjoy sitting across a table from you Rose and working on upcycling, drinking a beverage and eating a cookie or two, and laughing quite a lot. You are a fun person Rose.

[@kalieris]

I love how gleefully you took things apart before repurposing them. I’m looking forward to taking apart some of my existing jewelry.

[@amber6607]

Your a happy soul Rose, thanks, I up cycle jewelry as much as possible also.

[@Kdubs13]

I soooo could for sure seeing a 20 something yr old wearing that blue necklace... anyone into boho style would love that 😀

[@mehtarelingolien]

YES! Not everyone follows "trends", thank goodness!! The thing about trends is, they come back. This could have been a beloved vintage in another decade.

[@BNJewelryandArtwork]

I totally agree. I had some really cool chunky belts that were my mom’s after she passed away and I turned them into beautiful necklaces for my sister and I.

[@Misceletric]

Rose you are so entertaining and enthusiastic, this was really fun to watch and get inspired from!

[@rvprossjjlrzar]

I repurpose junk jewelry all the time. Haha!! Thank you for sharing your skills and ideas...I am glad to see one of ultimate favorite bead retailers doing videos on KZbin. I am late in the game!

[@shebear7542]

First time i have seen Rose and I love her already.....

[@FireMountainGems]

We love Rose too! Thank you for watching! ❤

[@arij-said]

I love her. She has a great personality 😃

[@piepeeya4604]

That was fun Rose! I like to re-purpose jewelry too. I have made pendants out of orphaned earrings. I am thinking of making a lost earring bracelet with all the small orphaned earrings. Lets do this again. =)

[@beadqueen20]

Great idea!❤

[@barbarawalsh4936]

Rose, I am a long time customer of FMG💕💕 going back to 2004, when I was in college. I made and sold jewelry to my friends. Love the selections I found. My last purchase was in June 2023. I've only seen 1 other video of yours, please make more. I love to upcycle the "old stuff" into new.

[@FireMountainGems]

Thank you for your support! We have a number of videos with Rose if you check out our full channel, especially the seed beading tutorials. Here is the link to our full channel: www.youtube.com/@FireMountainGems

[@kimmathis694]

I love to recycle old pieces of jewelry! You were so fun to listen to and watch! Your sense of humor reminds me of myself!❤

[@FireMountainGems]

So glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching!

[@lucindanobles7728]

Just awesome Rose! We have been shopping at thrift store jewelry counters for years and have accumulated a diverse collection. Now, we know what to do with them. Upcycling is another way to give new life to beautiful jewelry pieces and certainly gain a profit with their new life.

[@GB-he1zc]

You are awesome, you just modernized three pieces that could be warn individually or together because they are light, interesting for young, old and in between. Awesome!!!😍

[@gracenote100]

Rose, you're a gem yourself. I enjoyed your video immensly. :-)

[@LorenasChesed1beads]

Hello Rose, how are you. My name is Lorena I am a platinum buyer of FMG as of 2020. Always a pleasure to watch your videos.

[@The_momur]

You are adorable. Quite a coincidence; right now I’m upcycling some leftover polyester fiberfill and my daughter’s (19yo) unused toddler socks with some squeakers, making some toys for the next Westie rescue online auction and for our local rescues!

[@FireMountainGems]

That is awesome!

[@debbieandrews2152]

Gosh Rose…THANK YOU watching from Trinidad….so many ideas going through my head

[@serenityjcm1394]

So enjoyed your video Rose, love your energy and ideas. 💐

[@positivepulse77721]

Love your positivity and light and humor Rose. Truly a beautiful person who brings knowledge and positive vibes! Thanks lovely Rose❤️🌹❤️

[@gabrielleschmidt1435]

This was so much fun! Love ❤ your presentation and you! I've been upcyling jewelry for years and having so much fun doing it! Got my sister hooked now! We started making bee charms and selling them, to raise money to help save the bees. Been calling them 'Angel Bees'! 20% of the sales is donated to save the bees 🐝.

[@FireMountainGems]

Wonderful! Love that!

[@lucindanobles7728]

Yeah, save the bees.

[@dboyd1428]

Thank you for sharing this idea. I have plenty of old jewelry that can be upcycled.

[@user-eviemc1973]

Love your ethos about doubling up on dessert!!!❤❤❤ big lo e from the 🇬🇧

[@cathysmith9026]

Love to upcycle. Very pretty

[@lisamorales3914]

You're funny in a very delightful way!

[@dawng5653]

Rose you are pretty fun to watch thanks for the info from a newbie

[@FireMountainGems]

Thanks for watching!

[@lesliespiers8407]

I love taken old jewelry & re-creating something new, I call it renewed or refurbished jewelry ( example- taking clip on earrings & upcycle them to pendants , pierced earring.)

[@FireMountainGems]

Great idea! Upcycling can be such a great way to use your creativity!

[@latesmyplace]

I love this!! I’m so glad I stumbled on this content this exactly what I do at home. I’m glad that she mentions that we’re not married to the pieces and that the pieces aren’t currently trending and that styles change 😊

[@beadqueen20]

First time watching Rose; guaranteed it won't be the last!❤ you know how to get those creative juices flowing again. Thank you!!

[@FireMountainGems]

Rose is great! Thanks for watching!

[@alanbirkner1958]

Thank you. I have many beads to upcycle. Tina, Al's wife

[@irisbrouillard9728]

You are very pleasant, and I love your laughter! And love your ideas, I am itching to make some myself now!

[@FireMountainGems]

Have fun!

[@lindaducharme7610]

I am watching you for the first time. I'm from Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. I didn't know there was upcycaling! I'm not well and am indoors alot. I have bought jewelry bags first time in years. You remind me of someone I knew and miss. Take care of. Yourself, your so interesting to watch and learn, I am a fan for sure.

[@FireMountainGems]

Hi Linda and welcome to the channel!

[@FireMountainGems]

Thank you for your kind words. I am sorry about your friend. Maybe I remind you of her because we are related? I have lots of family throughout Canada including Regina. Happy Beading. - Rose

[@lynnsweet6902]

I would have bought that piece as is. Very BoHo looking and that type of jewelry is very much in trend always.

[@brigittewarnke7109]

It's 3am and I can't stop watching , I must go to sleep 😴

[@FireMountainGems]

Awww, thanks for watching!

[@angelitoqroo4897]

[@jaedeanmitchell5139]

I absolutely love you! Your laugh is so infectious and I think you’re a hoot! All that and talented too!

[@FireMountainGems]

Rose is the best! 🥰

[@frannygrace2191]

I buy jewelry at the thrift store and recycle it into barrettes to hold the back of my mullet in a twist on the back of my head. My hair is thinning (I'm 73 & on blood thinners) so I need a lot of fullness on top of my head but I don't like the"cut" look at the nape. I use both 3" French Barrettes and 1 1/2".

[@diannethomas374]

I love this!! ❤❤ I have been going to thrift stores and have a lot of old stuff or " seasoned " stuff! Love how you make these!!!

[@FireMountainGems]

Such a great way to bring new life to some of those "seasoned" pieces. Thank you for watching!

[@donnadiesburg7451]

This is so cool Rose! I love it!

[@annabellagardner3190]

Oh my When you decide to leave. I want your wonderful job lol Ps. Australia 🙃🇦🇺❤️

[@mltbkr]

wow wow wow first time I've seen this...I'm heading to the thrift store today!!!!!

[@FireMountainGems]

Good luck! We hope you find some hidden treasures to upcycle!

[@michelesugarmamazboutique1350]

Omg I love your personality ❤

[@queenrainbowakamumabear5583]

Been Beading All My Life Nearly Ready To Upload,Cause I Can Never Sell!!!

[@regalrose3365]

I love this, would love to see more upcycling 😊

[@FireMountainGems]

[@karadair9221]

Rose! Where have you been all my life? I really enjoyed this video and it's so great to have a chuckle while you work 😄 Inspiration locked in, thank you! 💖💖

[@FireMountainGems]

So glad we could give you some inspiration! Thanks so much for watching!

[@cindypage8673]

So cool! Totally inspired, thanks rose x

[@FireMountainGems]

So glad we could provide some inspiration! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@bmr250]

One of my favorite upcycling jewelry pieces, was using the ear bud wires to do the double wrapped bracelets.

[@FireMountainGems]

So cool!

[@jennifervines1143]

I know it's a little late but the silver broaches would look cute as earrings and put some drop beads from the bottom

[@FireMountainGems]

Definitely! Great idea!

[@joycemcleod8249]

Thankyou Rose

[@Jane-st3ed]

BRILLIANT!

[@_Lisa_S_]

First time viewer of your channel. WOW - what a fantastic video! Rose, you are such fun!! Subscribing!! - XO

[@FireMountainGems]

Thank you so much and thanks for the sub!

[@gwendugan2231]

So much fun !

[@julietv3863]

Cute video but what about just making weeks long pieces that are family heirlooms ? Or to sell.

[@FireMountainGems]

Great idea!

[@consueloyoung4484]

Fun stuff Rose!!!

[@tinalyons3964]

love your channel Rose x

[@FireMountainGems]

Thanks for watching!

[@alesiahowington5507]

Thank you for the video!!!

[@FireMountainGems]

Our pleasure! Thanks for watching.

[@guytiips3906]

Need to see your Treasure #Love from Thailand

[@TheKinderdoc]

Add a few small dangles to the choker.

[@laurabarber6697]

Thank you💝💎

[@FireMountainGems]

You are so welcome!

[@Sunnyis1700]

Such a beautiful necklace destroyed .

[@virginiawinch9261]

Was that necklace real turquoise ‽ doesn't matter really, what lovely pieces you have made already and sooo much more to play with you lu ķythiñg LOL

[@normanaquin3883]

I like them

[@BettyVincent-oi6sp]

Did you remove the wire on the other side of the leather choker? Or, put replacements where you had cut the other sides off?? 😮

[@FireMountainGems]

For the sake of video time, it was just left on the one side, but you could do it both ways! Either add wire back to the other side, or remove the wire altogether.

[@ryon1987]

hi ma'am can you upcycle a jewelry to make a crown or a tiara?

[@FireMountainGems]

Hello. You can upcycle jewelry into many different things, including a crown or tiara.

[@maryredden9687]

❤very very nice

[@GB-he1zc]

I made some drop earrings, bracelets, necklaces but the wire, the jump rings and all of the other connectors, tarnished and I am allergic to the metal they are made of, So I stop making jewelery. HELP!!!

[@FireMountainGems]

Hi there. All metals have the potential to tarnish over time and based on wear and care. You might try using silver filled components in your jewelry. Sterling silver filled components that we offer have an anti-tarnish coating to preserve their beauty. If using gold, karat gold might be best with your allergic reaction.

[@queenrainbowakamumabear5583]

Getting there

[@cynthiagreske5957]

I like quite a bit of this video however, I didn’t like the part where she put that face and the curly cue hair on a cheap looking chain. 7:11 I think the chain should be more classy than that

[@brandonrowan2296]

I now feel like shopping at goodwill to up scale my next jewelry art

[@lisamorales3914]

What's a finding?

[@FireMountainGems]

A jewelry-making term for any metal component used to connect and/or assemble jewelry. Findings are materials used to thread through, glue on, hook into, link onto or otherwise attach beads and components together. Findings include jumprings, clasps, bails, headpins, ear wires and charms, to name a few.

[@leorabyrd5926]

too fun =-)

[@liviaammonite4856]

Does anyone else think that that tree-head thing was a little creepy?

[@TawnH1]

I don't think so

[@joyceparkes2678]
