I've seen a few cool paper clip projects recently, so I wanted to see how many more I could find - and I found quite a few!  I'll start with one of the simplest: heart-shaped paper clips how-to on How About Orange.



One of my favorites is definitely this gorgeous rose ring on cute little disaster blog (with full tutorial!):



There are a bunch of paper clip rings out there, like this cool metallic one by kaleng on craftster:



And snazzlecraft on craftster has made a couple cool beaded rings - this one and this one:



I love this super happy, colorful paperclip bracelet, by maddiekins on craftster:



And here's another kind of happy bracelet, made by Anita on Cut Out + Keep, so simple no tutorial is needed for this one:



Also on Cut Out + Keep, Jenn shares her very literal paper clip earrings:

This is love forever blog posted about artist Lauren Manoogian's beautiful paper clip and tape jewelry:



You can also use paperclips to make jewelry parts for making other kinds of jewelry - doublebirdstrike did an instructable for jewelry clasps made from paper clips, as well as one for paper clip jump rings:



One of my favorite uses for paper clips is stitch markers!  I make beaded knitting stitch markers by wrapping the paper clip wire around a knitting needle once or twice and adding beads:



Futuregirl shows us how she makes these great crochet stitch markers from vinyl-coated paper clips:



Spoonfighter on craftster shares her method for making this cool pop tab "beaded" curtain, using just tabs and paper clips:

You can find some awesome paper clip inspiration on paperclipart.com, with Justin's geometric sculptures:



A couple last ideas - paper clips are a great way to hang handmade ornaments or origami works as decoration, like this one by foldsomething on craftster:



And a different kind of paper clip craft, I like this idea of making a paper clip jar from a recycled food jar by adding a magnetic strip along the top, as MggFrog did:



So if you have an over abundance of paper clips around your home or office, now you know some things you can make with them!  Have fun!
