Earrings

This week I treated myself to some of ScorchedEarthonEtsy fabulous beads. They arrived within days and I couldn't stop staring at them all Thursday afternoon....lick-able glossy glazes with beautiful glassy crackled parts, and scrumptious colours with contrasting oxide and oily copper bits.

-------------------------Petra please excuse the bad photography, Im clearly not used to taking pics of glossy surfaces---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 I adore over wrapped copper wire and big dangle earrings so that afternoon I made some bonkers tribal earrings with my RaggedRobyn beads and some of ScorchedEarthonEtsy love heart pendants too...




These can be found in my etsy shop, I decided to list them as singles as they are super striking and wonderfully detailed. 
As you can see from the photo's above some of my handspun yarn was used to add a visual contrast in textures and a softness in shape.
A steampunk, tribal, boho blend of goodness...I hope

 I was having so much fun I also made a pair with buttons...







Have fun!

    Oh my, that's like the jackpot having both of your elements in one set. Those are sublimely delicious earrings and nothing wrong with THAT photography! I know what you mean about photographing glossy. One of the reasons I started designing more crusty pieces!

      Yes photographing glazes has to be the hardest thing. I often struggle with matte surfaces anyway ha!
      Thanks for stopping by Kimberly :)
