Jhana Millers / My Ugly Kitty

Here's a great first anniversary (traditionally the "paper" anniverary) gift for your irony-loving spouse. In her "We Propose a Gift" series, New Zealand-based Australian jeweller Jhana Millers questions consumerism and luxury by creating rings using the pages of a Michael Hill Jewellers catalogue. Don't miss the rest of her portfolio, especially the mini debit-card sculptures!

Bonus link: catalogues aren't the only junk mail that you can recycle into jewellery! Maryland's My Ugly Kitty takes advantage of patterned security envelopes, showcasing them in her resin and pewter rings.

Even more jewellery:

• Robayre (Illinois) - paper & silver


• Elena Ruebel (Germany) - broken jewellery


• Katie Hillier (UK) - animal doodles


• Ginger Meek Allen (North Carolina) - contemporary metal


• Amanda Rudey (New York) - briolettes & chains
