Sweet Serendipity

I have been playing around with different series of late. That is so very unlike me. Usually I make one of something and then get bored with it. But I had these great little floral stampings in my stash and was experimenting with the colors of metal patinas and I just couldn't stop myself. And so these dainty yet bold earrings were born.

They look like those woven tapestry ribbon to me. And I happened to find matching beads in my stash as well. I find them girly but with a pop of color. Sweet serendipity.


Maybe I was influenced by the Pantone 2013 color palette (although not all the colors in my earrings are represented here... or are they?). I actually did have that Lemon Zest color, but I pulled them because one was lighter than the other. I must have been diluting the paint at that point. And I actually do have a color close to Linen. But I am still trying for that Poppy color. Mine is more rust. Still... I made all these before I even spied the color forecast. A true happy accident.



I am feeling generous. I would like to give away one of these pairs of earrings to one random commenter. You pick the Pantone color and I will make them just for you! My next post is scheduled for January 22nd. I will announce a winner of any one of these earrings on that date.

How about multiple ways to win? I like the number three, don't you? Each comment is one entry up to three per person will be considered.

1::FOLLOW Earrings Everyday and leave a comment that you do.
2::SHARE Earrings Everyday with your peeps: tweet, Facebook, blog, skywriting, smoke signals, sandwich board, billboard... pick one and tell me what you did.
3::SELECT your favorite Pantone color from this palette. Or combination. What colors speak to you? What are you most surprised to see here? Is there a color that is growing on you? Do tell!

And do be sure to have a way for me to contact you to arrange your prize. I will announce the winner on January 22nd!
