What is Jewelry Repurposing?
Repurposing is a verb or action word meaning to adapt for use in a different purpose. This is especially true for diamonds, gemstones and your old jewelry which can be reused to create a new piece with a new purpose and a new meaning. Something that is meaningful to the person you are now.
Why is Jewelry Repurposing so great?
We as individuals are ever-changing, always searching for our purpose by going through our own transformations. You wear your jewelry to represent your style, your personality & your individuality. But, through life and circumstances, these things change and therefore you Change. That is why your jewelry needs to change too and it CAN!
There are many life circumstances that has added to your jewelry collection. But if you aren’t wearing it, then you can’t benefit from the joy that jewelry brings. With jewelry repurposing, you don’t have to spend retail prices on diamonds and gemstone jewelry when you already have old jewelry that you don’t wear.
You have the power to change that old ring into a necklace or earrings, or just update its style.
When you repurpose, the new piece creates an amazing feeling of joy, excitement, and rebirth and is the answer to celebrating who YOU are now. And when you use your own gemstones, you are not only benefiting from their unique powers and saving their memories, their symbolism, their connection, but you are also saving tons of money. You save approximately 50-75% off of the same piece at a retail store & you get money back from your metal.. that’s a win, win in my book!
When’s the BEST time to Repurpose Jewelry?
Repurposing Inherited Jewelry:
Inherited Jewelry can be sentimental and valuable, but maybe you would never wear it because it’s not your style. Turn it into something you will actually wear to cherish and remind you of your loved one every time you put it on.
Repurposing Out-Dated Jewelry:
If you have Jewelry that has an old style that you have grown out of, maybe you got it when you were a kid. Give that old jewelry a fresh new look. Everyone loves a makeover…even jewelry! A lot of people have jewelry from their childhood with stones in it, maybe birthstones. Set those stones free and set it into something that represents who you are now as an adult.
Or maybe you’re married for many years and your engagement ring is no longer your style (or never was). Fashion was different then, you were different then. It’s time for an upgrade and a new look! Those ballerina style baguette rings never looked clean or had much sparkle. Breathe some new life and change it up to create something really dazzling. Now is a great time, because baguettes are super trendy & the new mountings & styles bring them back to life.
Repurposing Jewelry from Divorce
Turn that once loved jewelry into a new piece you can love again! You are the boss now, so make something that you will really want. Once it is out of that mounting, The stones will be cleansed from negativity and you will have a daily reminder of your new beautiful journey.
Repurposing Broken Jewelry
If you have broken jewelry laying around for more than a year. If it’s something you haven’t worn for that long, face it, you’ll never get it fixed. But if you knew you could turn it into something fresh, new & trendy that you’ll love to wear would be very exciting! So start decluttering your jewelry box & turn it into a real treasure. Because it has no value just sitting in your jewelry box.
Did you know that diamonds and gemstones chip and the metal can become worn beyond repair which causes the stones to fall out. Yes, like everything, precious stones and metal does wear away with everyday use. Sometimes it costs more to repair than to reset the stones into something new. So take advantage of this opportunity and create something you really want.
Repurpose Jewelry For an Occasion

You can turn old rings into your new dream engagement ring, heirloom jewelry into a stunning necklace or drop dead gorgeous earrings to really make you shine.
