Not one to go along with the in-crowd and wear the latest fads and fashions, I have to say I was intrigued with the new how-to jewelry book based on the hand-made, British cult-classic Tatty Devine, which is based out of the East End of London.

Exhibited in the pages of Vogue, featured on fashion runways, and worn by young celebrities, Tatty Devine creations are made from found and repurposed objects and range from the fairly interesting to the rather bizarre.

With their new book, How To Make Jewelry with Tatty Devine creative masterminds Rosie Wolfenden and Harriet Vine provide step-by-step directions to make some of their most popular creations that will allow you to add your own unique touch.

Though my favorite is the guitar pick bracelet, you may prefer the potato-chip-shrinky-dink necklace, coin ring, or puzzle piece earrings.

Filled with tips, tricks and great ideas, How To Make Jewelry with Tatty Devine will have you looking at random bits and bobbles as one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces just waiting to happen.
