| DiscChic jewellery by Iris Mishly |
At least not when you're teaching and sharing it with the polymer clay community :)
Back when I started my DiscChic jewellery, I wasn't imagining the curiosity these beads will create.
The DiscChic jewellery were created using reused computer
components.
I discovered them accidentally.
An associate showed me
several aluminium parts disassembled, he planned to discard them for recycling so I instantly told him i'll ensure they'll be reused in the most
outstanding method!!
In my polymer clay studio! :)
Right after collecting all of them, I started creating jewelry from them.
Their “bezel-like” qualities made them ideal for creating
beads & being made of metal made them best to combine with polymer clay.
In
addition, their “donut-like” form was fantastic for stringing them in
exciting innovative techniques.
The DiscChic tutorial was a hit when it was published several years ago.
Who knows, right after viewing my online video you might
find a treasure concealed in your office drawers.
So, what exactly are
these discs?
Well, they're aluminum discs concealed within 3.25 computer
floppy discs,
Yes, those no longer to be found in personal computers, the
ones we used a long time ago prior to Dvds or USB flash drives.

I already got dozen responses letting me know so many people still save them and happy to give them a new purpose!
