A New Earring Design!!

I've been plugging away, building earring and necklace inventory for our busy Alaskan summer tourist season, relying on tried and true designs.  Then, just 2 days ago, a new idea popped into my head.  It's actually a variation on a design I did a few years ago and allowed to fizzle out.  I love when this happens -- just when you think you'll never come up with something new, there it is!

I started with one of my sterling silver tornado elements and wrapped size 15 seed beads all around it.  Yes, I have done this part before.  The new variation is the dangle on the bottom.



I will probably list a few pairs in my etsy shop eventually and the rest will be for my booth at the Alaska State Fair and my fall craft shows.

Whiskey Quartz cubes with gold seed beads


Garnet Briolettes with rosy seed beads


Amethyst Briolettes with purple seed beads

And yes, there are plenty more pairs completed and several more in the planning stages!

Very spiffy - looks like my yard when the wind was blowing yesterday!

How fun are these! Will you be switching up the seed bead/brio colors? Can't wait to see what else you've got planned!

Gold jewelry is almost always a classic and a staple in every wardrobe of women. Earrings in yellow gold and are never out of fashion in various shapes and attractive design.
