 I would guess these are a Kimmie design? Looks like to me, if not let us know who they came from!

They're gorgeous, love the colors and the design itself.

 Yes, those are made by me.... I am blushing at the "Kimmiedesign"....

I read that Inca loved teal and black, that the earrings shouldn't be too big and that she likes it a bit goth. So I thought this would be a good pair for her.....

I can't wait to receive my earrings!

See I know ya!

I can see where they could be a bit goth but I'm not and I would wear those any day!

What kind of stringing material do you use to make them hold their shape? Maybe it's just the weaving that makes them hold the shape but I just love those.

Hihi, you guys are great! Thanks... And about the design: I usually start out with the center bead and just see how it goes. It's made with nymo thread and it gets it's suspension by the weave, I guess. I don't only do weaving, as soon as my mark for the braceletswap receives hers you'll see....

And about the gothaspect, I always think black makes an item goth, altough that really isn't the key element, so I guess these aren't really goth, but I guess a goth-person would like them as well (can you guys still follow me?)

My costume designer friend recently explained to me what is typically goth fashion.  (I am making a goth/punk costume for halloween).  He said that goth is actually Victorian.  Goth does use a lot of black but it actually is not all black...there is also alot of color.  Punk however is more of the torn, safty pinned, patches kinda look...and then  you get into the Goth Punk which is basically punk with a little randomly thrown in Victorian elegent thrown in.  lol...sorry, I just thought that was intresting!!!

Yeah, you're absolutely right. But the goth people always wear something black. I saw "The Duchess" with Keira Knightly yesterday (one have to fill in her time, whilst sick on the couch), she wears such amazing jewelry in this movie.... I think I'll pop the DVD in and put it on pause so I can study it. I absolutely love Victorian jewelry and fashion, such detail, amazing!

And Mary: SoNo is the better version of Nymo, my thread isn't actually Nymo, it's some sort of nylon thread I ordered while I was working in a tent-selling and repairing business. It's amazingly strong, but it frays easily... I am planning on getting the SoNo after I finished this stash of thread. But I have about 150 bobbins left in black, white, brown, beige and grey... Probably enough till I'm in my eighties.

 I am kinda surprised I haven't heard people talk about OneG...its a Nymo look alike but it doesn't fray as easily and it doesn't pierce as much.  I normally use Nymo just 'cause I have so much still but OneG is actually really great and want to eventually completely convert.
