Recently I enjoyed making a few pieces of jewelry again. I had all but gotten rid of my beads and wire thinking that maybe I would never do this sort of work again. But, I am pleased that the urge to play with wire came at me again and I grabbed on and got busy. As is usually my habit I made the first pair from copper. I love the look of the copper especially with the peridot beads and the rosy headpins fromHigher ChakraSupply. For the silver ones I chose sodalite beads for the accents along with some 2mm silver beads and plain headpins. I like them. I'll wear them. My kids will wear them. It's all good!

A Bit of Wire Wrapping Re Enters My life

My New Earrings

Nothing difficult about making these new earrings, but I really do enjoy wearing them. I created them especially for my Texas vacation and will take them to Mexico too! Did I mention that I'm going to Mexico next week? Yes, another trip, this time to near Playa del Carmen with my daughter and granddaughter. More on that later.
And ah the earrings are made using a copper connector, various sizes and shapes of copper beads and some 3mm turquoise for color.
