My antique diamond bar pin was converted to a bangle by Grace. I'm very happy with the results. It is just what I envisioned. Very shiny and delicate.

Here you go! I wanted it to fit snugly to my wrist as I work at a computer most of the time and round loose bangles tend to bother me. This turned out just right.

Thank you all for your encouraging comments. i do try to re purpose old jewelry or ebay finds (which this pin was for very short money). To hear that I have succeeded makes me want to keep on with the hunt! :twirl:

That's a lovely bangle! What are the dimensions of the pin originally? I think it looks fabulous on you and you'll get plenty of wear out of it. So happy for you how it all turned out :)

Thank you! The total length of the pin is 2 1/2 inches. My wrist measures about 3 1/4 inches side to side and about 6 1/4 inches around at the spot I wear the bangle. The fact that the fit turned out snug like I wanted really makes this for me.
