Repurpose of this item...

...was a long time in the works.  This is a wooden textile shuttle repurposed into a windchime - complete with various shades of turquoise glass beads, crystals {salvaged from a chandelier} and vintage keys.  The vintage keys and eye screws have been colored with alcohol ink.  And I could not have done it all alone - special thanks to David Bray at Shamrock Shredding for being the brains behind attaching the hanging hardware and Theresa Abel for wiring the beads and keys.
This ornament is available for sale $55.00 - delivery available in the Greensboro area or shipment can be arranged.
