Romantique Filigree

I have used these thick filigree pieces on quite a few pairs of earrings and I truly love them. They make the earrings feel so romantic and elegant. You may have guessed I have a bit of a romantic side by now? lol

They are long, and long to me stands out. I want my earrings to stand out, why wear them otherwise? All Brass and lampwork beads, perfect to wear all year! You can Find them HERE in my Etsy shop as well as many other things.

STeamPunk STyle

I have been experimenting more with a fun style called steampunk lately. I am actually surprised by how many people locally have no idea what steampunk is! I have been trying to educate them a little and help them discover this wonderful and eclectic style!

 I made some pieces for a client to go with their Halloween costumes. I am excited to say they were quite pleased and excited that I was able to make the pieces for them. Of course that is where the rest of the pieces in My Etsy Shop came from. Inspired by what I had created for my customers, I just went with it!

 Of course this is a blog about earrings, so pictured here are only the Steampunk earrings I made. To see the rest you will have to hop over to my shop...

So have fun shopping for your Steampunk style pieces!! You never know what you might fall in love with!

Black Birds

I am actually quite excited about these! Not sure what it is about these fun yet dark little birds that makes me smile :)
I am not sure exactly what inspired me to make these, I was making new tiles for my shop and realized that I just could not list these! They were meant for me to make them into asymmetrical earrings!

 So now, they can be yours if you are so inclined! You can find them in my ETSY SHOP as well as many other wonderful earrings just waiting for a new home! Want to make your own? Contact me at my Supply shop and I can custom make these or other tiles just for you...

Thanks for stopping by...

Sapphire Blues

Most colours have always held some inspiration to me in one way or another. The ones I tend to use the most are in the green tones, but Blue is as always fabulously versatile! The magnificent multitude of shades in this particular colour is astounding! You can find them everywhere! Nature is always my biggest inspiration, so look up at your sky and think of all the shades you see! If it's early morning, you may have some pale shades with some brighter blue tones here and there, if it's evening it may have a greyer hue. Look at water reflecting the sky and it turns those same blues into deeper shades!

Need an idea of what to wear with these? Found this amazingly sexy and elegant dress on Pintrest! I prefer something a little longer myself, but why not! lol I of course would put her hair up so you can see the earrings! :)

 I hope you feel inspired to wear something new!

You can find these and other handmade earrings in my Etsy shop!
