I haven't been blogging much, but I've been very busy with a lot of different projects including making a lot of earrings. Every 18 months, I rendezvous with 11 fabulous women all of whom were in my freshman dorm in college. We always have a blast and usually exchange small, inexpensive gifts, so this time I'm giving everyone earrings. They will get to choose from the ones shown in the photos. These are all post earrings, but I hope to make some dangles this week.
I made these using a crackle technique: pearlescent paint on clay which is run through the pasta machine when dry. Although they look large in the photos, the trapezoidal earrings are about the size of a U.S. nickel. The small round ones are less than 1/2 inch in diameter (12.4mm).
Those are all so pretty. I'm sure your friends will love them!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carolyn. Eventually, some of these will end up on Artfire as soon as I get Paypal set up and figure out mailing costs, etc.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I especially like the 2nd set, I think because I resonate to the colors. Your "rendezvous" with the 11 fabulous cohorts from your Freshman dorm sounds fabulous and I'm sure they will love their unique and beautiful earring gifts.
ReplyDeleteThey are fabulous! You are going to have such a great time with your friends. Oh,oh, what if they all like the same pair?
ReplyDeleteI have a lot more pairs of the first and second colorways, so I hope everybody will find something they like. We are all very intellectual and sophisticated, so I doubt there will be any hair pulling. LOL
ReplyDeleteVery effective!
ReplyDeleteThanks everybody.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, I especially love the dark blue & black and set. Sounds like a fun time with your friends, and a fun exchange... your friends are lucky to receive these. :)
