It's good to be back here at EE! Things have been hectic around Casa Meridy for a while now, but I finished these color-drenched new earrings just a couple of hours ago (as I write this on Wednesday afternoon) and wanted to share them with you.
I'd had these beautiful Cathleen Zaring (
Blue Hare Art Wear) charms for a few months, but it wasn't until yesterday that a design idea came to mind. I probably would never have remembered the gorgeous lampies used here if they hadn't just happened to be on my work table, in a bag paired with something else. I'd had the beads for quite a few years and had never found the right design for them, but they sure make magic with Cathleen's charms--serendipity! ❤️
I wire-wrapped the beads and charms together with some pretty copper bead caps, little iris Czech rondelles, and tiny orange-gold Swarovski bicones. Given the rich colors and the lush detail of both main components, keeping everything else simple seemed right.
And: I don't know what happened to March, but clearly I missed a posting here one Thursday and didn't even realize it until much later. To quote the great Thomas Dolby, "My brain is like a sieve." My humblest apologies! ❤️
Thanks so much for reading. I'll see you in a couple of weeks--have a wonderful Thursday!
