Holiday Hoops ♪♫♪♫♪♫

I would have to say hoops are my favorite earrings, perhaps it shows my age, I don't know, it's what I wore wore back in the 70's and 80's, and the bigger the better.  
These colorful lovelies are no exception.  



I purchase the brass blanks and do all of the painting myself.  It's not really that hard since the pattern is already there for you, a little time consuming, but I've done enough pairs to have the process pretty much nailed down. After paint and seal, I bend them to shape, punch holes and apply the ear wires.

I think these could pass as holiday Poinsettia's don"t you?





I've painted many summer bouquet's as well, the fun part is, I never know where the process is going end up, I just keep adding color on top of color ♥


So go buy some brass blanks you admire,  acrylic paints and a fine paint brush and let that inner artist glow!!!

♪♫♪♫ Thanks for looking friends ♪♫♪♫
See you again in two weeks ☺

  4. Lynn, these are so cool! The actual painting itself is -- well, as Cindy said, patience and a steady hand! But your imagination is even more amazing. This is just another example of your endless creativity.
