A new batch of bullets for my store. I find it mildly troubling that bullets are my biggest sellers. What does that say about us as a society... or my buyers anyway? In any case, I try to make them pretty and unusual. I like to think this is putting shell casings to a better use. Maybe some day bullet cartridges will be obsolete and only used for art.

Check out my store for bullet pendants:

I think it's more "okay if I have this gorgeous piece of art, that's one bullet casing that will not harm anything."

They're really lovely. You're totally on my list when I have $$ to spend, I want one for a pendulum.

I LOVE these! I'm a big fan of "not used for it's original purpose" jewelry, and these are a prime example! They make me think of the phrase "swords beaten into plowshares".

I am still working on the Bullets for Peace angle. It's proving difficult to find a charity willing to sponsor me, but I continue to move forward with the project anyway. Thanks for your kind words!

These are amazing! :D

The don't look like BULLETS to me, like violent ammunition. It feels to me like you've taken something that is violent and harmful and turned it into something peaceful and beautiful. :)
