yes it ended yesterday that means you
likely have dozens of Fiesta medals
sitting on a sash or vest right now or
if you're like a lot of people they're
already in a drawer or tucked away in a
closet but they don't have to be not at
all a San Antonio woman is taking her
love for jewelry making with yeste I
will turn those medals into something
that you can wear year-round and she's
been live out in the case hat garden
right out front all morning working on
one of them David Sears is outside with
her right now let's get that update
David see this is where a lot of metals
end up in some kind of bag somewhere and
you just like with all these remember
that we started off with a pile here
earlier today Kathy Meyer has created
absolute fantastic look with that
necklace it was just a pile of metal sit
here Kathy how long did it take you to
do that like less than 25 minutes to put
all that together it does takes me 15 to
20 minutes I do
pre make all my charms and get my chain
all cuts so then it's very easy for me
to just simply put up together necklace
all you need or I basically asked for 10
minutes I used one as a tail in the back
and then I just kind of take the medals
and do my arranging and then include my
color charms to go with it yeah you do
this people probably at home could
figure out a way to do that I mean this
is a great way to display your medals
and show rather than just stuff them in
a drawer or a bag right yes and I kind
of do it I kind of tell people try to do
it as a memory necklace you know your
favorite Fiesta medals for this happens
to be all 2018 and I have other people
who pick their medals from throughout
the years and do things and I think all
the medals that on this one also are
also 2018 some of the larger medals I
just did something very simple with some
very colored beads
that's nice this necklace is from all
the King Antonian just look like you're
wearing a bunch of coins and things like
that on there David here's a notch too
that I made you can take an individual
medal I happen to take the case that
medal and just do that Ruby got a
question for you mark said yes okay so
did she
she obviously she cuts the ribbons off
what does she do with the pin on the
back of the metal does she cut that off
too or if you just leave it clipped
depend on the back of the metal are
these things right there what do you do
with these
oh actually I have a friend of mine who
do this kind of has a metal Fiesta metal
fixing business okay so I give him all
the leftover ribbons and he takes him
and he fixes them you crazy zone
I've also donated some to people who do
charities that maybe make their own
metals and so they can be reused
recycled I don't throw them away I make
sure I just keep a long I know there's a
lot of UT fans out there she went to UT
so look at that so you could do that
with any school I had all seven the last
seven starting from the very first one
they did at the coop all the way to this
year and I believe is he the the PS this
is a Fiesta one this is 2014 I don't
remember which is the very first one
it's one I think it was either doing
maybe 11 very nice though but I'm gonna
pick this up just to see how much this
way oh that's not bad it's not too bad I
only suggest 10 medals because you're
gonna look like mr. t so you want to
make sure that you're not overwhelmed
basically I would say with it with the
weight now we have to give you the fool
that wears those David but it looks good
gold on okay I'm trying here
go away hold on he's gonna get this on
him I will take that from you I just
gotta hook him up okay sure fantastic
your looks a see today get those metals

nice necklace pretty like that all right
