My New Earrings


I made some earrings last night with my lampwork beads and some gorgeous pieces from Kristi Bowman of DreamSome. I love them! I made them to sell at my first big show, the Delmont Apple N Arts Festival, but I fear I may have to keep these for myself!

These trees were found in Michaels, on an end-cap - I assume they are scrapbook or card making supplies, but make fantastic earrings.  The holes were a little small and far down, so I had to make LARGE loops.  Paired these with cute little gold colored jingle bells! And, finally, the ones I had in my head the moment she announced the blog hop.  Dr. Seuss sparkly puff balls with ribbons.  The only thing that would have made these better for me is if I could have found the red ribbons I really wanted to pair these with - don't get me wrong, the silver is cool and all, but in my head they w
