Cork Jewelry Gains Popularity
Corks are the latest of the "unjewel-like" objects being used for jewelry. Little ones and big ones, the small ones in clusters, the big ones side by side, are used for necklaces and bracelets. One necklace combines natural colored corks, shellbacked and enameled ones, white, chalk blue or lime green.
Jewel studded leather is another idea. There are belts and bracelets. It's smart to wear three, four or five of the bracelets at one time.
