#sponsored Today is America Recycles Day! In honor of that I wanted to talk about something we can do in our jewelry making to help the environment, choosing to work with 100% recycled metals! At @stullerinc you can not only find recycled sheet, but they also have recycled bezel wires, decorative wires, sizing stock, ring blanks, casting grain, solder and tons of findings! Everything you need to create your designs! @stullerinc is committed to ethical sourcing and environmental sustainability in all aspects of their operations. This includes their Responsible Sourcing Protocol (which you can read on their website) and using 100% recycled materials in all of their manufacturing processes. They have received SCS's certification for 100% recycled metals, verifying that when you buy their manufactured metals—gold, silver, platinum, and palladium products—they have 100% recycled content. For those like myself that were not familiar, SCS Global Services Certifications is an international leader in third-party certification in environmental and sustainability claims (according to global standards). Stuller’s entire fabricated metals assortment is SCS certified! To bring awareness to this, I’ve partnered with them to create an awesome #DIY earring project that is made with 100% recycled materials and findings! It also have stones that are ethically and sustainably sourced. To check out the project head over to my blog, the link is in my profile.
