I've been infatuated (in love?) with sea glass forever, I think. I love it as much as any bead or button. Maybe more so. Every piece is unique. Even if I manage to find the perfect piece in the just right shade of green (or whatever color I am seeking) finding another to match is a near impossible task. That's why when I do find two that go together, whether it be for size, color or shape, I am thrilled. And momentarily find peace. Until next time... and search again. 
This set features olive green, natural (found) sea glass, with carved (or etched) agate beads in a dark tomato red color that pairs well with micro-faceted garnet gemstones and tiny Swarovski crystals that dangle from pure silver nugget charms. Ear wires are handcrafted with over sized silver nugget, hammered ends.
Are you interested in drilling your own sea glass? I have written up some helpful tips here: http://earrings-everyday.blogspot.com/2015/10/drilling-sea-glass-my-experience-by.html
I can imagine it's not easy to match bits of sea glass and how exciting it is when you do!! Beautiful Earrings!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's what makes these pair of earrings so unique! Your skills and the rare matching pair of sea glass. A treasure.
ReplyDeleteI love love the colors here, Cindy! The contrast between the deep red and the olive is superb, and the dangling garnets add the cool movement. I find silver so much more difficult to work with than copper. You work it so well. And thank you so much for taking the time to offer the tips for drilling sea glass. My drill bits still sit in the package they came in. :) Great earrings, Cindy.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, you're exactly right, those little sea glass shards are just perfection! And my favorite color, too. Beautiful whimsical pair!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful earrings Cindy! I love all the different textures together. The colors are awesome!
