Hello
friends, I hope you all have enjoyed a wonderful weekend. Here in Greece if was
warm enough to officially “open” the swimming season… we hiked in the mountains
and ended the day with swimming in the sea. Wonderful.
As you might
know I have set myself a challenge this year for Earrings Everyday: making
earrings with long hoarded beads. The beads have been hoarded for various
reasons: I could not part with them, I just had to have them without any idea
what to do with them, or I bought them with an idea in mind which I had
forgotten about once I received them, some I completely forgot about (yes, that
happens) etc.
Today I set
myself an even more difficult challenge: make three sets of earrings with the
same beads.
I picked
these wonderful handmade polymer clay beads in various shades of grey. I bought
these in 2011 from a shop on Etsy called Peak View Creations. Sadly, this shop
doesn’t seem to exist anymore. I then picked bright yellow handmade lampwork
glass beads made by Amy. I am an official hoarder of the amazing muse packs
from a great friend Claire Braunbarth from SmittenBeads, so I picked a pack and
use some of the beads in them.
Thank you so much for looking and I hope to see you in a couple of weeks.
Here on Earrings Everyday we appreciate and love to read your comments. So don't be shy and let us know your thoughts. Wishing you a wonderful day, full of joy, flowers and sunshine.
