About Costume to Custom

Costume to Custom is my long-time jewelry repurposing project. Although it's gone through several iterations, its mission has always remained the same: save jewelry from the landfill.

Currently, Costume to Custom mostly consists of costume and fine jewelry I've found while looking for jewelry to use for puppetry. (Yup...puppetry!) These eclectic beauties were languishing at resale shops, thrift stores, estate sales, and auctions. Unwanted and forgotten, many were headed to the trash (or for the precious metal recycler, at best).

As Costume to Custom jewelry, these pieces get to float back into the world as wearable emblems of arete (excellence, virtue, greatest potential). Yay.
Thanks for supporting arete in the world, one jewelry piece at a time!
