Light As A Leather

I first started using leather in my earrings when I found some really cool salmon skin leather in Chile a few years back.
My local bead mall in Tucson recently had tables full of scraps for $5 a pound so I nabbed some especially decorative pieces in metallics and cowboy boot style to combine with my torch fired enamels

They are so lightweight and a breeze to design with by simply cutting the leather to your desired shapes with scissors.


Just a few added embellishments and there you have it!


Thanks for looking and hope you are sailing into summer like a feather in the breeze!

  2. Really it’s very nice Earrings and I like it. But now stainless steel jewelry is in demand. Recently I ordered a Special Stainless Steel Earring from “ZuoBiSi Jewelry Wholesale Store Ltd.” online store. Believe me the Earring looks beautiful and stylish.
