I've been having a problem uploading this photo - Firefox keeps crashing - so I hope I get this posted before midnight.
Here is a pair of crackle earrings. I need to find a better background and a better way to display dangle earrings because they wiggle around too much on the chain.

Lots of Earrings
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).
