Fashionable Jewelry Made from Trash

Designer Victoria Spleet-Lenz magnates positive astonished reactions when people find out her jewelry is created from recyclables. She individually hand-crafts every item with recycled aluminum pop and juice cans. Each piece is exclusive, elegant and unique.

Victoria doesn’t mass produce. In fact, all items are individually handcrafted. Her earth-friendly Eco-Accessories™ are made from recycled plastic pop bottles and aluminum cans. The Pop-Drops™ are earrings made from recycled aluminum pop and juice containers. New designs are always taking place and the latest is Flutter-By-Butterfly Earrings.

Every element that goes into every one of Victoria's creations is carefully selected. This takes time, but the result is that each handmade item is as unique as the woman who wears it.

Fashion Counts by Victoria is her company title. This hot jewelry artist is not easy to find if you're far from her Michigan home state. And although making jewelry is her long-time passion, her day gig is as a special education teacher. That leaves little to zero time for marketing and as a result, she prefers to collaborate with sales reps.

The grape vine spread when Carol Alt, model and actress, praised Victoria's jewelry. Additional admirers included PBS Television, Vegetarian Times, Plenty Magazine, Environmental News Network, The Ann Arbor News, and an exhibit at The National Plastics Center & Museum. Typical receptive descriptions were clever, ingenious, and earth-friendly.

Retail buyers for specialty stores and sales reps are welcome to ask me for Victoria's wholesale catalog. Individual buyers are welcome too.

Meanwhile, I hope Victoria's creations inspire designers everywhere. This is one beautiful person who makes a big difference. Accordingly, I quote Sonia Johnson: "We must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history."
