A Circuit Board Eyeglasses/ID Holder That Is Such a Geek Treat
I think this creation of geeky goodness, tops my list for ways to reuse old circuit boards. Etsy seller DebbyAremDesigns got really resourceful when piecing together this one of a kind recycled circuit board ID badge/eyeglass holder (which I'm naturally calling a necklace — hee hee). The artist says:
A funky badge holder made from recycled vintage circuit boards, vintage lucite and glass beads from the 1950's as well as recycled colored "bell" telephone wire from the 1950's!
Circuit Board Recycling Reaches Its Greenest Heights
I'm always in for a unique way to recycle and reuse circuit boards, but usually the novelty look of the boards makes for something that's fun-looking, like this necklace, but not objectively cool-looking.
This Circuit Board Pencil Cup, however? Definitely an exception.
Circuit Board Necklace Takes a Bite Out of E-Waste
Be eco-geek-chic with this recycled printed circuit board necklace. Considering circuit boards account for three percent by weight of the total amount of electronic waste, you are not only getting a geekilicious piece of jewelry, but you're helping the environment as well! Each necklace is totally unique and measures over 1.5 inches wide.
Circuitboard Ornament Set: Love or Leave?
Now that you've got a pink Christmas tree covered with digital photo ornaments why not add a Circuitboard Ornament Set into the mix?! So I may be getting out of control with my geeky Christmas theme, but how adorable are these green circuit board ornaments?
I envision them hanging on a white tree with a string of white lights twinkling behind them.
Circuit Board Chic: Where Tech Meets Art
A circuit board may simply be a small, insulated board where interconnected circuits and components are mounted, but it has come to represent something much larger. In fact, circuit boards have been a source of inspiration and a material staple for designers and artists of all sorts since the widespread use of the personal computer.
I like circuit board pieces because they seem to embody the complicated and ongoing workings of a computer, but at the same time seem natural and almost organic because of their subtle, earth colors.
