I have been so inspired by thoughts of Spring this last week!
These "hopeful" green earrings are a combination of some borosilicate glass beads created by a fellow Frederick, MD glass artist, Julie Delaney, and I chose them a while ago for their lovely, muted shades of green...my all-time favorite color! I created the sterling and faceted green agate components after a wonderful workshop with Richard Salley, where I learned to solder bezel cups and set tiny cabochons. In my quest for the perfect, Spring-like, green creation, I paired the 2 and came up with these!
We haven't really had a bad winter here in Maryland, but for some reason, I am totally ready for new shoots of green to spring from the ground. They actually have here and there on warmer days...I know they will die back when the big snow/cold finally hits here, but they are always a hopeful sign!
