A method of making costume jewelry from cotton burrs, heretofore considered trash, is disclosed. The burrs are first cleaned by removing any residual fibers from between the locks of the burr. Next, the stem is cut close to the crown and the crown is ground to provide a substantially planer surface. Next, the burr is painted, and may also have a coat of lacquer applied. Decorative pellets, ribbon segments and other decorative devices are also secured to and between the locks of the burr. Finally, a wearer attachment device is secured to the planar surface created by the grinding step.
