Some fun new earrings as we transition into spring. My color choices start to creep -- ever so slowly -- towards brighter shades. Still some fall/winter tones, but movement towards the new season. Design below from Fusion Beads' Inspiration page. They look just like their "Peacock" name. A 12 mm swarovski crystal provides an incredible center point for the turquoise, blue and purple seed beads that surround it. F U N to make and wear!
Next design is patterned after a "Bubbly" wire earring pattern from the July 2013 Bead Style magazine. A design by Madelin Adriani Pratama. I didn't want the bubbly as much as a cleaner line with some dangles and a feather, so here's my version. The older beading magazines are so wonderful to thumb through when my brain is less than inspired. So many options and such limited time!!!
Such a darlin' pair -- a beaded bead of fire polish with a czech glass flower dangle, and a metal Native American coin as the earring post.
The flower star beads below are incredible - like a lapis finish - and very unusual. I can't even remember where I picked these up, but I have been using them sparingly as I don't have many. The brilliant blue pearls really make them pop!
And, some fun hammered hearts - with fire polish and seed beads wire wrapped.
