One of my photos has inspired this week's earrings. I have tried to replicate the colours and textures of the beach here on the Aegean coastline. Clear green/blue waters, creamy sand, and lots and lots of beautiful stones (a few of which may have found their way into my suitcase!).
I used rustic glowy sea glass, creamy stoneware discs from Earthbutter Studio - Desiree and her team run a fair trade group in South Africa, and sales from the beads support single mums - and perfect lampwork again from Patricia Ritchie. Look how they mimic the sea/shoreline. Some little stone beads and Mykonos ceramics for the rocks. Those lovely dark copper earwires are of course by Lucy Haslam who is re-opening her Etsy shop at the end of this month. Hurray!
Off to do more unpacking and washing. Groan. See you on the other side.
