How to Decorate With Recycled Silver

Purchase a silver fork, spoon and knife from a thrift store. Apply hot glue to the back of each piece, then press the utensils into a shadow box. Hang the box on your kitchen wall for a charming, creative art piece that recycles old silver.

Purchase a flower vase that has been melted and reformed into a flower vase. Fill the vase with water and your favorite fresh-cut blooms. Lay several mirrored plates on your table, and place the recycled silver vase on top. The blooms and the recycled silver vase will reflect in the mirror. You can find recycled silver bud vases formed out of reclaimed silverware from online art vendors, fine arts and crafts shops and at flea markets.

Decorate a branch tree or faux evergreen tree with recycled silver jewelry. These baubles have been recast in recycled silver frames and make endearing ornaments for an ornamental tree inside your home.

Decorate your wine glasses by wrapping small sections of jewelry wire through recycled silver pendants or charms. Slip a few colorful beads along the wire. Place the wire around the wine glass, form the wire into a small circle that rests on the wine glass base, twist the wire to secure it into a circle and snip off the excess.
