Ever chip a tea cup and loathe throwing the whole thing away? You could always use them in mosaics. Or even turn them into a lighting fixture. But Lindsay Pemberton has come up with a clever way to reuse tea cups. She's created beautiful bangles from them.

Using second-hand teacups, Pemberton forms one-of-a-kind bangle bracelets that hearken up a vintage feel for your wardrobe. You can purchase the bangles from Pemberton, or try out creating some of your own as a great reuse project!
