The Best Kind of Earrings....

are ones that are given to you!



I thought I would re-create the earrings from my Bead Soup the other day, since I got so many sweet comments on them, this time using very cool borosilicate artisan beads from JavaBead.  Embellished with my hand formed copper bead caps and torch-fired enamel headpins.  Simple design, but they pack a punch!

How can they be yours?

1. Leave a comment.
2. Follow Earrings Everyday
3. Blog about the giveaway or Earrings Everyday in general (provide link)
4. Share on Facebook or Twitter

Winner will be drawn Sunday evening.  Good luck!

    I love the little drop of lilac at the bottom and the copper. I am somewhat copper obsessed right now.
    Thank you for the daily posts. I am new to wire work and get so inspired by the ideas here.

    The best thing about these earrings? They will go with ANYTHING! The swirl of colors in the beads will make them match with so many different outfits. I really love the dainty little flowers on the ear loops too.
