Jody Freij-Tonder is doing her part to help with recycling efforts by using bottles, jars, windows, and cut-offs from stained glass windows to produce a unique line of recycled glass jewelry. Her interest in recycling dates back to the early seventies and the first Earth Day.

In a stained glass class in 1983, she realized the possibilities of combining passions to create recycled glass jewelry. Soon after, she produced her first recycled glass earrings. Freij-Tonder cuts pieces of glass and either fires them in a kiln or tumbles them in a rock polisher.

The kiln-fired glass retains the shiny surface and the pieces of tumbled glass are etched to a beach-glass texture. The individual pieces are then fitted with hypo-allergenic surgical steel ear wires. The results are guaranteed to delight!
