    Andrea,

    It took me a little big of experimenting to get my photos to post on here correctly, too!  I think the pic is a perfect size.  I LOVE those earrings, beautiful!

    Roni, I got my earrings on Saturday, one hour before my birthday party started and they're gorgeous! I love copper and I love turquoise, so they are a hit! Thank you! I'll post pics, as soon my mark gets her earrings, so I can post them all together on my blog and link them to this thread. But feel free to post pics, when you have some.

    Andrea, the second pic is just right in size! Not to mention, that these earrings are WOW!

    I bead and bead and bead and bead... And when I am not beading, I am taking pictures of my beadwork, blogging about it, or trying to sell it here and here...
    Please take a look around, and let me know what you think...

    And Dagmar, I wouldn't mind passing on some of the bobbins, but they are not exactly nymo, the thread is a bit thicker. But if you mail me your adress I'll send you one, so you can check it out.

    Kim, I sent you an email five minutes ago. Smile

    I got three wonderful pair from Dagi-

    Bead woven Jack O Lanterns, Bead woven "Boo" earrings which is also my nickname- good picking up on that Dagi :)

    and a gorgeous pair of Cobolt Blue Sea Glass earrings with a silver pearl on sterling findings. Ahhh I love the beach, if only I lived on the beautiful coast of SE Florida, or any beach for that matter!

     Shawna, I love the earrings you made for Rachael - are they jumprings with seed beads?  Do you make your own jumprings?  I've been playing around with making jumprings in different colored wires and your earrings definately give me some ideas, great work!

     

     Yes they are jumprings with seed beads strung on them. About size 11s i think. I do not make my own jump rings, just buy from various sources.

     I love the effect that your design creates - would you mind if I used yours for inspiration to make my own?  It would be so much fun to try something similar with all the jumprings that I've made.

    These are the earrings that I made for Pat.

    Left pair, pietersite and lepidolite, right pair apatite and kyanite.

     I will be a swallow, winging to warmer climes on the breath of the storm. I will be a deer, running swifter than the sunlight, sheltering in the birch thickets. I will be a salmon and swim the length of this great water in powerful surges; my scales will throw back the silver gleam of the Shining One like a melody of bright notes....Juliet Marillier

     Oooh, Christina I love the earrings that you made - the apatite and kyanite are such lovely shades of blue - both pair make me think of the ocean - the natural patterns on the gemstones are just beautiful, and your design shows them to thier best advantage.  Well done.
