AJE Earring Challenge Reveal 6 Weeks 11/52 & 12/52

Welcome to the 6th reveal for the Art Jewelry Elements Earring Challenge! 

My earrings for week 11 of the AJE Earring Challenge.

For this pair I used a pair of Ellen Dooley's lovely, white lampwork discs, strung on pink hemp, with faceted white glass beads and brass colored, pewter discs.  I love how these earrings turned out, but boy, are the faceted glass beads hard to photograph!

My earrings for week 12 of the AJE Earring Challenge. 

For this pair I used a pair of Heather Wynn Millican's polymer chit chat beads, wire wrapped with amber colored glass beads.

AJE Earring Challenge Week 7/52


My earrings for week 7 of the AJE Earring Challenge.

For this pair of earrings, I made my own art bead/component using Vintaj brass blanks that I embossed with my Vintaj Sizzix BIGkick Machine. I used various Vintaj patinas, trying to achieve an emerald color, for the Pantone color of the year. I finished with wire wrapped AB emerald Swarovski crystals.
