Steampunk Oldjunk Necklace

There really is no such thing as "junk" when it comes to jewelry making. One or two left over beads or metal findings can be combined with many other elements to result in a unique and eye-catching piece of jewelry. This necklace is a good example. The metal gears and necklace chain were the only newly purchased parts. Everything else was a cast off from previous projects, some more than ten years old! Dive into your stash and see what you can find to create a contemporary statement necklace.
