Because the color red often symbolizes passion, love, anger and energy. I wanted to create earrings with lots of movement and a bit of spice! I used copper headpins with red drops at the end and spiraled those around red glass beads that hang from copper hooks.

Though you may not have had much to work with, you really did a lovely pair of earrings out of this challenge. I would totally wear them. I love that little swirl with the headpin that frames the other bead. Great work!
ReplyDeleteLove these! Those swirls are awesome.
ReplyDeleteI agree - I never would have thought to spiral the headpins like that. Very cute!
ReplyDeleteI love the design - really cool!
ReplyDeleteThose worked out so well! The headpin with the teardrop as the spiral is great!
