Go big or go home

Hoops are so versatile and are always in fashion.
From teeny-tiny to gigantic sizes, there's something in there for everyone's taste.

I hadn't made big gigangic hoops in awhile, and I decided that today was THE day :)

So this is what I made... for the big hoops earrings lovers of this world,
inspired by fun Summer nights with family and friends:

These 14kt Gold-Filled hoop earrings are oval shaped, over 3 inches tall (from the top of my cold-forged handcrafted ear wires) by over 2 inches wide.
I have wire wrapped them with rustic chunks of Chinese Turquoise.

I also incorporated some fun flirty chains in the mix.
A little bit of Rustic Chic, as I like to call it. 
You can dress them up or down, these extra large gold hoops are READY for a Summer Party!

You can find these HERE on my website.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you're enjoying your long weekend!

    1. I had absolutely no idea (I'm ashamed to say that I don't follow trends... I just follow what my mind cooks up in terms of designs). Very cool! Thanks for letting me know :)

  2. I don't know about trends, but your wire work is amazing as always- and the design is spectacular. I love how you did the beads and dangling wires at the top. Beautiful!
